Do you literally ever just feel like getting up and heading out the front door, maybe going on a little adventure (on a bike, or out to sea)? By yourself even? I mean, I know I'm a mum and I'm not supposed to want to go adventuring, especially not on my own or anything, but I have to admit sometimes I just can't help but dream about it 😁 I completely love my children, like more than LIFE, but I still need breaks from them. These are both true: love my kids, and need space. Sometimes though I feel like I'm not allowed to have both those feelings at once, know what I mean? Why the fcuk are we so damn hard on ourselves, I do not know. It leaves me wondering... am I a "bad mum" or is this just a good ole' case of the mum-guilts? _______________ #messy_motherhood#lovingtheordinarymoments#inspiremothers #honestlymothering#mytinytribe #simplymamahood#unitedinmotherhood #livethelittlethings#momsofinstagram #thepursuitofjoyproject#letthembelittle #ourhousehold#honestmotherhood #momlifeisthebestlife#motherhoodrising #littlefierceones#acupofmotherhood #stopdropandmom#parenthood_unveiled#parenthood_moments#momentsinmotherhood#motherhoodintheraw #ohmamamoment#mamasgotthis #boldbraveyou#solovelysofree
I felt extremely proud of my young man when he asked to put his cuddly dog into a blanket wrap and then into a carrier. Monkey see, monkey do as they say. If he grows up with this amount of care and compassion then his world will be so greatly improved. I hope he carries this with him always, and I'll keep on loving him and nurturing him to model it myself. #compassionateparenting #compassionatecare
Don't you just love the power in this statement? Truth talk! Thank you Dr Shefali. How often do we forget that we are co-creators in our own lives? ______________ #inspiration #quoteoftheday #instaquote #instamum #pblogger #stayathomemum #mumblogger #igerdaily #writer #personaldevelopment #soulmamma #liveauthentic #consciousminds #goodvibesonly #thesoulmamma #feelthelove #consciousparenting #slowliving #simplelife #lifestylesofthenotsofamous #mumlife #mumsofinstagram #realtalk #ecolifestyle #metime #crowdfirecreator #nothingisordinary #ourcandidlife #soulmammaquote #consciousparentingquotes
INTRO POST Do you know my story? This here is one of my three main WHY's... may I introduce #monsieurcolebear (again, to many of you), my third and final little miracle baby. Why do I call them miracles? Because if you had met me 18 years ago, just before I met and fell in love with the father of my first born, I was a complete train wreck. Five years and a whole lot of deep personal development work later I was able to actually be a present and functional single parent to that first of my three. Several years later again, I met #mrlarge and he and I, against all odds, had a child and a marriage and then several years and a couple of big moves later, a third child born in Bath, England. There have been geographical challenges (we are from different countries), and fertility challenges (numerous miscarriages, IVF and then finally a natural pregnancy and birth at 44), and then just LIFE challenges... but through it all I have been blessed with some incredible support, some great information and very strong intuitive impulses that do not let me down. So that is why I write about conscious parenting and ethical lifestyle on the Soul Mamma blog. I feel that I have to share the incredible information that has come my way during all of this. I feel like it is an obligation almost, a deeply honoured role, to share what I have been given with others. I'd love to hear from you.
