In this episode of seeds for your garden, I discuss the power of the word "AND", and how it can help us access greater self-compassion and reduce guilt and shame in our mothering journey. "And" refers to the idea that two seemingly opposite things can both be true at the same time. For example, I can love my children deeply and still need time away from them to recharge and take care of myself.In this episode I explore how patriarchal motherhood ideals can lead to black and white, all-or-nothing thinking causing internal conflict, guilt, shame, and burnout, and how embracing to begin embracing the power of "and" to help us move away from these ideals and create a more empowering and liberating experience of motherhood.  Here is where you can find out more about me (Yara), how to work with me and some resources: Why Am I So Angry Workshop *** Waitlist for The Rebirth, Group Coaching for Mamas ***This is my signature 3 months online group coaching container for mothers which covers family of origin, inner child work, nervous system basics, anger, boundaries and much more.  @lifeafterbirthpsychology   www.lifeafterbirth.com.au Free Inner Critic Workbook Free Values Aligned Living Workbook
