SLEEP MEDITATION with Lauren Ostrowski Fenton24 Juli 2016

Episode 110 Being well with Lauren

Episode 110 of podcast Being well with Lauren

True strength comes NOT from fighting or flighting BUT from sitting in the silence

As a single Mum, age 51, with four kids, life can be challenging. One of the challenges I continue to face is the precarious ever-changing balance between mothering and maintaining my sense of self.

How do you keep a sense of calm in the mayhem of your life?

It is Sunday morning. I have just got back from basketball practice, and I have tried( emphasis on the word tried) to clean the house. I have picked up banana peels and apple cores. I have cleaned out the garage. I have washed dishes, put a wash on, Put washing away, cooked food for the next three days( I hope the food lasts that long)cleaned the kitchen, vacuumed and somehow the house still looks pretty terrible. Yes, my life with four kids life can be quite challenging. One of the issues which keep coming back to test me is how to be a Mum( I love being a Mum) without it becoming my only label. After all, Mothering is one of the labels I wear among of so many labels. I am not one story I am many stories. Sometimes in life parenting can tend to dominate our sense of self and like a tsunami drown out everything else. Thats why It is important to find ways to always maintain a sense of self, but this is easier than it sounds.
How do you so it?
How do you define the balance?
How to plan around the mayhem of life without placing yourself under too much pressure?

And let's face it Panic just doesn't help but staying calm in the chaos of life is hard work.

How do you remain calm?
Let's talk through these questions and more. Go and get your cup of tea and let's have a friendly chat.

Topics touched on:

Living in the mayhem
Work parenting balance
Parenting
Single parenting
Stress
Planning
Journaling
How to set and achieve goals
How to manage stress and fear
How to plan
