Our session today focuses on an ongoing theme I see frequently with women in therapy. It’s centered on how many moms feel frustrated and blame themselves for not doing enough to feel better. There is so much to unpack around this topic. Let’s take a closer look! Show Highlights: We can’t “self-care” our way out of ongoing stress! Fact: Times of transition are inherently stressful. Scenarios in which stressors pile up and impact our mental health and well-being Understanding the impact of stressors with a conscious awareness Using context awareness to inventory your feelings Building self-awareness by using a checklist to inventory your basic life functions around sleep, eating, hydration, hormonal changes, etc. Identifying resources and your best sources of support Resources: Please find resources in English and Spanish at Postpartum Support International, or by phone/text at 1-800-944-4773. There are many free resources, like online support groups, peer mentors, a specialist provider directory, and perinatal mental health training for therapists, physicians, nurses, doulas, and anyone who wants to better support people for whom they provide services.  You can also follow PSI on social media: Instagram, Facebook, and most other platforms Visit www.postpartum.net/professionals/certificate-trainings/ for information on the grief course.   Visit my website, www.wellmindperinatal.com, for more information, resources, and courses you can take today!
