M I S E R Y Today was a miserable day. It’s im M I S E R Y

Today was a miserable day.

It’s impossible to let yourself get caught up in feeling all the feelings rather than fixing them, without succumbing sometimes.

“You’re so miserable, it’s exhausting” he said.

Today was a day that I woke up glum and that escalated quickly.

A day in which the fact we can’t go anywhere or do anything seemed harder than it has on so many other days.

The pressure of running two businesses, being a mum, girlfriend, daughter and friend all felt like heavy weights.

The absence of connection and interaction really hit home.

The light at the end of the tunnel feels so far away.

So yes, today I feel miserable. And moany #. I know it’s no more fun for anyone else than it is for me.

So, if you’re feeling the feels and miserable is the one for today (or tomorrow, or lots of days) you’re not alone.

Allow yourself to wallow and feel - it will pass 💫

Y O U R E - D O I N G - G R E A T Hey mamma, I kn Y O U R E - D O I N G - G R E A T

Hey mamma, I know it’s hard. I know it feels like you’ll never sleep again, that you’ll never be on top of all.the.things, that you’ll never get it ‘right’

I get that it feels like your world has been tipped upside down and you’ve no idea how to go about finding your way to the surface.

Mamma, it’s ok to be struggling, it’s ok to cry, it’s ok to shout and be ragey. It’s ok to feel like you’ve no idea what you’re doing and to have lost all trust and confidence in yourself. It’s ok to need space, to not want to be touched, and to just want some peace and quiet.

It’s ok to feel all of that, it’s normal. 
But let me tell you, because you need to hear it, you’re doing great ❤️

Take a deep breath, drop your shoulders from up by your ears, soften your brow, take a deep breath and let.it.go.

Let it all go.

You got this, you fabulous human you

Join me for weekly catch your breath sessions and together let’s calm the ball of anxiety, feel more grounded, present and confident, and connect with other mums 💫

I M P O S T E R - S Y N D R O M E Sometimes I for I M P O S T E R - S Y N D R O M E

Sometimes I forget that other people have the same worries, doubts and fears as me. I write about mine as a way to get things out of my head so when I receive replies to one of my #AYearOfLoveNotes, my heart gets all aflutter. And when I hear that my words resonate and are helping someone else I get all warm and fuzzy inside 😍

Each Love Note is your daily accountability to make time for self care, a nudge to take a step back, put the To Do list down and to live in the present. 

So if a daily dose of love, a reminder that things aren’t meant to be perfect and a prompt to take a small daily action towards inner peace, sounds right up your street, I can’t wait to show up in your inbox 😍

F O R G O T T E N We’ve been forgotten. In the F O R G O T T E N
We’ve been forgotten.

In the midst of the pandemic, the chaos that surrounds us and the uncertainty that’s coming, we’ve been forgotten.

Amidst the outrage about a lack of financial, clinical, and mental support we’ve been forgotten.

Surrounded by countless tangible, visible, and substantial losses, felt by so many, we’ve been forgotten.
We. The Lockdown Mums with our Lockdown babies and Lockdown Bumps.

The first timers, second timers and many timers.

We’ve been left without support, in lockdown, home, often alone, with tiny humans depending on us 24/7.

We’ve been stripped of our networks, our coping strategies, our options to make life a little easier.

We’ve had advice groups, social groups, learning groups and ‘I just need a break I don’t care what the class is’ groups taken away from us.

We’ve had health care workers, specialists and medical staff have to walk away from us because they’re overrun, short staffed and struggling to meet demand.

We’ve gone into hospitals for life changing appointments alone, scared and abandoned.

We’ve been poked, prodded, invaded and opened up by a sea of masked, impersonal faces.

We’ve been told we’re lucky, told it’s a great time to have a baby, that with forced quarantines, forced ‘family bonding time’ and forced ‘rest’ we don’t have anything to complain about.

We’ve spent hours, days, weeks and months without being able to stop and catch our breath and to process the changes we’ve been through.

We’ve become new people unsure if the person we are is a result of motherhood or of ‘all this’

We, The Lockdown Mums.

We haven’t missed a beat ❤️

I - M U S T - B E - D O I N G - S O M E T H I N G I - M U S T - B E - D O I N G - S O M E T H I N G - W RO N G

She doesn’t sleep for more than an hour at a time through the night. I must be doing something wrong.

She doesn’t eat as much as other babies. I must be doing something wrong.

She wakes up crying. I must be doing something wrong.

She has to be fed to sleep. I must be doing something wrong.

She doesn’t roll over. I must be doing something wrong.

Mama, I get it.

It’s so easy to blame ourselves. So easy to presume we’re doing something wrong and everyone else is doing it all ‘right’

It’s only when we stop, take a deep breath, still our over thinking minds and let all the negative thoughts go, that it’s possible to be kind to ourselves.

That it’s possible to remember all babies are different, all mamas are different and that’s how it’s meant to be.

So mama, stop, catch your breath and let those thoughts go.

L E T S - N O T - F O R G E T Words by @livingful L E T S - N O T - F O R G E T

Words by @livingfullaftered

Let’s not forget about the people stuck inside their minds.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
I'm begging you, please, as the vaccines arrive,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
as life slowly goes back to normal,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
and people start to emerge from their apartments, houses, or wherever they’re staying.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
Let’s not forget about the people still stuck.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
The mother with a newborn, with an extended case of the baby blues. She’s stuck in the arms of postpartum depression. She’s sad, overwhelmed, and anxious by all of it.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
The young twenty-something stuck in the cycle of eating disorders that has only gotten worse with the isolation of covid. She sees no way out, even when the world opens up. ⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
The woman whose days still seem to be blurring together because they’re all the same. “Is it Thursday or Friday? Who knows, who cares.” She’s too depressed to do anything anyway.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
Let’s not forget about the people 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 stuck inside their minds when our lives speed up again, and we go back to achieving at all costs.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
Let’s not forget about the people 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 stuck inside their minds when the focus turns to our social calendars.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
We don’t have to wait for World Mental Health Day to draw attention to mental health each year. We’ve all struggled on some level during this pandemic and now know the importance of continuing the conversation.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
Because we know how bad it can feel,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
to doubt yourself,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
to obsess about the what-ifs,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
to snowball think,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
to withdraw,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
to fake happy.⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
So please, as life eventually goes on,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
let’s not forget about the people left behind,⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣
⁣
the ones 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 stuck inside their minds.⁣
⁣
