Feel empowered to become the mother you want to be. From birth to
your baby's first steps, this soothing book will support you to
open your heart to the highs and lows of mothering and adjust to
your new role. It offers everyday meditations and visualisations,
postnatal yoga, natural remedies, and nutritional advice to help
you care for yourself with the same love and commitment you give
your precious baby. As a new mum, you may secretly wonder: "Am I up
to the job?" With pressure on mums to parent perfectly and "bounce
back" effortlessly and unsupported, all amid sleep deprivation, and
brain, body, and relationship changes, it's no surprise women
struggle. You are not alone. Compassionate, evidence-based
psychological ideas from clinical psychologist and mum, Dr Caroline
Boyd, will ground you amid the storms, enhancing everyday
connections to you, your baby, and the world around you both.
"Compassionate and powerful tools are delivered in such an
accessible way. I hope this book finds its way into the hands of
every new mum." - Anna Mathur, Sunday Times bestselling author of
Know Your Worth and Mind over Mother. This holistic book will help
you understand: - Significant brain, body, and identity shifts
during this transformation known as "matrescence". - The intense,
emotional rollercoaster of this first year - explaining what can
shape your ideas of the "good" mum, and why experiencing feelings
such as anger and anxiety doesn't make you a "bad" mother. - Why
it's important to learn to self-soothe, with practical
psychological strategies to help you nurture yourself, as well as
soothe your baby. - Why couple dynamics shift with the arrival of a
baby, and ways to stay connected. - How to use your values to guide
your decision-making, making choices that fit for your family.
Caroline offers gentle, realistic advice with a focus on mindful
compassion - supporting you to develop a kinder relationship with
yourself. She offers natural remedies to help manage interrupted
sleep and strong emotions, healthy foods to boost energy and
improve low mood, affirmations to soothe and support, and
mini-meditations and longer meditative practices to calm and centre
you and to share with your baby. Enjoy gentle, targeted yoga, with
your baby and alone, to ease the aches and pains of early
motherhood and build strength and flexibility. Use mindful massage
to bond with your baby and nourish your body. Mindful New Mum will
help you find more head and heart space - empowering you to become
the mum you want to be.
