104. Mother's Day Mantra: Finding Peace When Motherhood Is Never Easy But Always Worth It
Manage episode 482041986 series 3480770
Mother's Day isn't simple for everyone. In this special episode of the Mindful Life Changes podcast, host Valerie Mekki creates a sanctuary for those with complicated feelings about this holiday. Whether you're missing a mother, doing your best as one, or navigating a difficult maternal journey, this episode offers a compassionate space for reflection and healing.
Join Valerie as she shares her own complicated Mother's Day experience and guides you through a gentle mantra practice: "Being a mom is never easy, but always worth it." Through calming affirmations and mindful breathing, you'll find validation for the full spectrum of emotions that Mother's Day can bring—from grief and guilt to love and gratitude.
This episode isn't about diminishing anyone's celebration but about honoring the complex reality that for many, Mother's Day holds both light and shadow. Discover how to find peace amidst these contradictions and embrace your authentic experience with compassion and grace.
Check out episode 52 for a guided body scan meditations and empowering "I am" and "You are" statements designed for moms.
We are now on YouTube! Check out a playlist of beautifully animated affirmation videos and helpful videos about midlife changes like changing careers, being in the sandwich generation, and more. Look for my new channel "Oh, hello midlife"
Formerly known as the "Mindful Career Change Podcast," I decided to broaden our conversation to cover all life transitions, not just our careers.
