Self-care and parenting don't always go hand in hand! But they should...
Manage episode 332874690 series 3286387
Mum-guilt, Dad-guilt, parent/guardian guilt is such a real thing and it really is the underlying cause of soooo many parents not doing the self-care activities they need to do in order to be okay. The thought of self-care triggers the emotion of guilt and it really gets in the way.
We are both Mums and we have chatted at length about how difficult it has been, and at times continues to be, to prioritise self-care and the thing that always gets in the way is guilt – it’s selfish to look after yourself when you should be looking after your family – there are more important things to spend your money on – the children are the priority, their needs are more important. Eek... That inner story is soooo real. And the feeling of guilt can just be crippling. Even when we know that we can’t keep pouring from an empty cup, even when we know that if we look after ourselves we can show up with more energy and attention for those around us – it’s not rational.
Join us as we explore self-care and parenting.
