Becoming an Aligned Mama
I think we can all agree that becoming a mother brings both immense joy and great challenges! For me, learning to live in alignment and to cultivate self-love and acceptance are essential in motherhood. In this blog post, I share some of the principals or beliefs that help me to live as an Aligned Mama.
1: Recognizing our Multi-Dimensional Nature
As an Aligned Mama, I acknowledge that I am a multi-dimensional being. For me, one of the greatest benefits of learning about Energy Healing, was the confirmation that we are indeed spiritual beings having a human experience. When you start to feel energy and see the affect of the healing, you cannot help but feel a sense of awe.
When I accept that I am here as a soul, for growth and expansion, I accept that it is through life's challenges, that we grow and expand. By being open to this bigger picture, we choose growth through the experience of motherhood, rather than mere endurance.
Through my Energy Healing work I also developed a keen sense of the support we receive from the Source of this magnificent energy, and indeed a whole team of multi dimensional beings who are available to help. We just have to ask!
2: Embracing Wisdom & Authenticity
Alignment involves tuning in to our unique wisdom and trusting our intuition as we navigate motherhood. With so many opinions out there, it is quite the gift when you begin to tune into and trust your own inner guidance.
As an Aligned Mama, I have chosen to let go of societal expectations. I continuously revisit my values and ask 'What's important here?' When we follow our inner guidance, we create state of harmony and balance that originates from deep within us. We begin to trust ourselves more and more and stop looking outside of ourselves for approval.
I remember the relief I felt when I realized that my children are multi-dimensional beings too, with their own wisdom! This is very freeing. But we have a responsibility to allow them to tune in and makes their own decisions.
3: Energy Awareness
Do you know wen you are in alignment and when you are not? Do you know when your energy has been affected by environment or interactions with others? By being aware of our energy and learning to protect and channel it in a way that honours ourselves, we can prioritize feeling good above all else. Challenges become opportunities for growth as we embrace a mindset that supports alignment. We learning to keep our heart centres open and to experience life in all its colours.
4: Parenting from Acceptance and Emotional Awareness
Being an Aligned Mama means choosing to parent from a place of acceptance. Accepting myself firstly and accepting my family members as they are. I know this can be tricky but when we understand the natural ups and downs of family life and we understand that even if there are strong emotions, nothing has gone wrong.
When I experience challenging emotions, instead of trying to avoid them or push them away, I have learned to become the witness and to allow myself to fully feel and express them. Similarly, when my children experience difficult emotions, I am aware of the importance of creating a safe space for them to express and process their feelings. The secret here is .... take nothing personally! But it is so worth while, as it creates an environment of emotional growth and understanding that offers our children great skills for life.
5: Self Compassion
It's important to acknowledge that we may not have always been aligned or fully aware of our emotions. I certainly know that in my early years I just wasn't available for myself or my children. But I think it's important to release any shame or guilt attached to those moments and recognize that we have always done our best as mothers. We can choose to clear guilt at a cellular level and throughout our past and allow ourselves to be proud of our journey as moms.
My manta is 'In every moment we have an opportunity to begin again' Self-Compassion is essential in motherhood as our own inner wounds will inevitably be revealed. Every time we are triggered is an opportunity for healing.

Becoming an Aligned Mama is a powerful choice that empowers us to love and accept ourselves deeply while honouring the unique journey of our children. By recognizing our multi-dimensional nature, embracing wisdom and energy awareness, and choosing authenticity and self-compassion, we create a nurturing environment for our families.
