Mothering…
She wanted to know if her ‘just being a mum’ was enough… She was experiencing lots of inner conflict around that she ‘should’ be doing more. Of course she could, so why not push herself to be everything to everyone…
She tested that theory. Pushed herself in many directions, a part time job, the family business, parenting three young children, doing community work, running the household – all at once. At the expense of her own health, wellbeing, balance and family connection.
So did it work? No.
I asked… whats the alternative…’to know my mothering is enough, to know I am a woman of value. To know that I am enough, without having to try be more’.
The last couple of sessions I have taken her in deep into her old programming and unconscious belief systems, to do some important rewiring.
When she landed deep in the well of her intuition, she got the message, ‘yes, its enough’… and was flushed with relief. This is a classic example of inner disconnect between our multi brain intelligences – the head, heart and gut. When they are out of alignment, we experience inner turmoil, doubt and conflict. An over-ride of the head brain trying to do it all and control it all. And a disconnect from your deep embodied wisdom, identity, heart-based values, passion and purpose.
So you could be going through the motions of life, and missing the joy of it all.
Once this inner work was done, she knew her truth and now will live this way. How to turn the mundane into the sacred. To embrace the living of life right now. This is it.
Parenting, it’s quite possibly the most important thing you will ever do with your life.
