Minding Mummy Workshops
Minding Mummy was created as a safe space for mothers to learn new tools and techniques, and to mind their mental and emotional needs.
Motherhood is a journey and sometimes through the transition we can lose ourselves. We may become anxious, depressed and compare ourselves to other mums. We hide behind a mask, too scared to talk about our mental health in case we are judged.
Sometimes we need to understand why we are feeling this way and how to care for our mental health and emotional needs. Also talking to other mums and realising that they are feeling and thinking the same way can be a great support.
Minding Mummy’s Hopes
