The mental, physical, spiritual and emotional garden that lives within you wants to bloom. Do you tend to it to grow? Today, I am talking through a recent visualization I had in meditation that had me thinking of how I realistically tend to my personal needs. Follow along for more :)

Today I reference the book The Yugas: keys to understanding one's past, emerging energy age and enlightened future. There are two goals they mention in this book and I talk through how I am incorporating them into my life. One- The experience of happiness, the feeling of being happy, is the result of movements of our life force in our bodies. Two- the experience of personal happiness is enhanced through the expansion of one's awareness and sympathies. I hope it resonates <3

Today we discuss what it really means to take care of yourself as a mom, and it's not just a bubble bath or a solo walk. In this episode we dive into self-care through the understanding of our energy and its field. We know that we are our children's energetic leaders and because of that, we have to understand and be able to control our own energy. Through self-reflection, open communication and boundaries we are able to take care of our energy and in turn, take care of ourselves. Follow Along! instagram: @mistysibol email: [email protected]

Raising yourself, or reparenting yourself while parenting seems nearly impossible. The big questions like who you are, and who you want to be get pushed to the background. Often as moms, we get caught up in the schedules, the mundane tasks and responsibilities that fall on our shoulders and forget to check in with ourselves. How have we been handling our emotional selves? Are our actions in alignment with who we want to be? Listen along today for some insight into raising yourself while being a mom, and check back in for more episodes in this mini series I am calling "Through Motherhood".
