Let's clarify "Self-Care"

Picture
In my previous blog post, I talked about boundaries, which for me is core to the act of self-care. Without boundaries, self-care is a non-starter. This post is a continuation, and talks about self-care, and its importance in motherhood.

The Birth of a Mother

Picture
So imagine, it's early morning and you are waiting for some life-changing test results. You have been waiting a while to receive these results, so you are very eager to know the outcome. You may, or may not fully realise it at first, but these results will shape the way you will live your life in the future. These results will influence yourself, your partner, family, friends, your work life, how you travel, how you eat and drink, and generally how you experience your daily life. You wait a few more minutes and the results are clear, they are positive.

​Congratulations you are pregnant!

    HOME IS WHERE YOUR HEART IS.

    Leaving your city or your country is indeed painful. Even for those that see opportunities within this new challenge. Making new friends, when you still miss your old ones. Building a new home, when you still have plenty of memories from your old one. Making a new family, when your own family is thousands of miles away. Feeling like home, when you have tried so many times to do so. Yes, we know how you feel.
