This Mama thing can get tricky. There are moments where I have to remind myself that Mamahood looks different for everyone and that’s okay. Although we have a number of parenting books, magazines, and guides accessible to us for assistance, we still have to manipulate the information to fit our household and lifestyles.
However, one thing that we can all relate to is the fact that our babies are counting on us and watching us. We have to show up for them every single day, whether we feel like it or not. So many of us have experiences that cause us to feel overwhelmed and exhausted. Don’t forget those times where we question whether we handled that situation the right way, or if we are even doing enough. It’s definitely like that sometimes.
Another important lesson that I’ve learned so far, is that in order to show up for my babies in a healthy way, I must first show up for myself. Gratitude and affirmations/mantras are essential to my life and both have made a positive impact on my mental.
Black women are known for our strength and resilience. To help keep us mentally grounded, I’ve included a list of powerful and positive affirmations that I love from liveandearncanada.com.
