Mama, Reclaim YourSelf Cecile Edwards M Ed

"[Reclaiming SELF] calls for women to love themselves fiercely, overriding centuries of perceived powerlessness and second-class status so that we can reclaim our magic and raise our children to recognize theirs."I always knew there was more and I was always willing to access my higher self irrespective of what others tried to tell me about what they thought I should be, do and have - as a woman, mother and force of this world. As a mother who has and is breaking deeply embedded negative generational, societal and personal patterns - this a testimony as much as it is a guide. This book is not only an outline of lived experiences of breaking these patterns but also tips and practical steps to self-reclaimation and reparenting. This book also offers encouragement and personal empowerment for mothers seeking sacred self-care. From defining generational "curses", releasing overwork to access more rest and release - this book dives deep. Correlating your self-connection or lack thereof to how you were parented and/or parenting, is daunting. We all can use community and honesty to nurture our understanding down this path. Parental mental health is a growing niche for a reason and this book offers a piece of the ideas necessary to engage life, family and self-work meaningfully. Irrespective of where you are in your process this book will be helpful and give you tools that will engage you in deeper self-awareness and self-care. Some answers you will find in this book is: why generational healing is critical to sustainable healing, why self-love is self-care and mommy guilt is a form of self-punishment and how/why to release it. Parent Coaching is a growing field because many parents are looking for healing, ease and power in their parenting. Taking my personal work, career and years of speaking to working with and encouraging parents - this book outlines a portion of the skills needed to access this power. It begins with the intention to reclaim yourself and walk in your magic.
