The transition from maiden to motherhood is definitely one we can’t truly prepare for but having a better understanding of what you can expect is definitely helpful. I got this book as part of my Postpartum Doula training and immediately I couldn’t wait to read it.
.
This book is one that every mother should be given when pregnant. (Because no new mother has time to read)
.
I’m in know way affiliated with this book (this is not a sale pitch) it’s just something I wish someone had given me to better prepare myself for what postpartum life truly looks and feels like so I thought to share it with all of you. ❤️ #postpartumrealtalk

Today, I’m thankful for all the past emotional trauma.
I wouldn’t be the same person I am today if it weren’t for what happened in the past.
I wouldn’t grow as much.
I wouldn’t know and appreciate happiness and peace as much.
And I also know you can do the same.
Here’s what you can do to heal from the past:
1. Accept what happened
You can’t live life in denial. You can wish for something not to have happened but that won’t change the fact that something did happen.
Accept what happened – don’t let your own past haunt you. Most of the time, you can’t change what happened but you can change the way you look at things.
Even saying out loud something like – Yes, I was hurt! or Yes, that event was extremely painful for me will be liberating and soothing to your wounds.
2. Talk about your pain
We try to avoid pain as much as possible. We shove our feelings deep down. We don’t talk about what it feels like to be hurt.
But pain has its own beauty. Suffering isn’t pretty but it helps you grow – more than what you ever thought possible.
So talk about your pain. Share it with others. The more you talk about it, the less you feel it. You’ll be surprised just how many people will be able to understand what you’re talking about.
3. Don’t hold any grudges
Forgiving someone for the pain they’ve caused you will be one of the most difficult things you’ll ever have to do. But while doing it, you learn that you forgive yourself as well – because no, you haven’t done anything wrong.
Life’s too short – and too beautiful! – to be resentful. Shift your focus for the better, brighter things that are going to happen.
And really now – think about ALL of the things you can do with the mental energy you’re using to hold a grudge. Totally not worth it!
4. Look for your lesson
Believe it or not, my past has shaped the person I am today. I wouldn’t be the same without it.
My father leaving me wasn’t the best thing that has ever happened to me – but today, I wouldn’t have life any other way.
Are you still hurt from your past? Do you find forgiving others hard? What message do you have that you’d like to share?

Things happen. People leave. Circumstances change. And you feel like curling in bed all day crying.
But there are ways you can forgive yourself.
There are ways you can learn how to love again. You know, you can be content with yourself once again – all you’ve got to do is trust yourself a tiny bit more right now.
