How to Live More Authentically
How can you have a more authentic life as a woman who is also a mother?
During this phase of life when we are called on to look to the needs of others on a constant basis, the way to answer the authentic callings of your heart is to incorporate them into your life 'little and often'.
Whether it's yoga or some other form of exercise, meditation or some other sort of spiritual practice, money, gardening, giving,
Live a more balanced life by allowing yourself a little of what you love. Restore sanity and feel fulfilled every day.
Enjoy the life you are leading NOW, instead of waiting for some fantasy future.
If you've been doing this mothering thing for so long now you can't remember what makes you happy then start to keep a gratitude journal (at the end of the day write down 5 things for which you are grateful from that day) or write a Happy List to be updated regularly. Get back in touch with those things that make you feel most alive.
'Perhaps if one really knew when one was happy one would know the things that were necessary for one's life.' - Joanna Field.
