#24 Connecting with your Innate Mother-Wisdom

Sara is back today! We wanted to share a bit about this deep mother-wisdom that we see activate in women when they are pregnant and become mothers, and that we ourselves have experienced. You could call it mother's intuition, spidey senses, just deeply knowing and noticing her children, or a mother's ability to tune into a universal wisdom of the feminine and specifically of motherhood.

 

You'll hear about:

• Little ways to practice connection to body and it's subtle messages
  • Taking tiny moments to check in
  • Dancing!!
  • Honoring cues (hunger, thirst, pee, movement)
• Spending time with mamas you admire
  • Acknowledging your gratitude for them can help remind you of your own
  • Time with mamas who trust you, and reflect back your own mother-wisdom
  • Amplifying “mother frequency”
• Nervous system work
  • When we are relaxed and open, we are more tapped in
  • When we are stressed, have less capacity to listen
  • When hard things come up, create space to think about it. Allow your nervous system to relax before jumping into something
• Honor your partner
  • In seeing and exalting their contribution, you can see your own in the negative space
• Spend time in nature
  • Messages, signs, come when we are closest to “spirit” feeling aligned. For me, this is in nature
  • As Maryn Green says - Mother Earth is your kids original mother, you are the imperfect human mother. Returning to nature can help us feel mothered ourselves.
