A diary of a working mom’s life

About this episode

The episode explores the chaotic yet relatable experiences of a working mom, emphasizing the importance of mindfulness and self-care.

Today’s been a day, where I felt to be like unorganized puzzle pieces all over the place. My mind like a bee hive, one million thoughts and feelings at the same time. Up in the air like leaves in the fall wind. After a miserably rainy morning came the sun with a crisp icy winter wind. Snow had fallen near by the city for the first time, winter is officially around the corner, only a couple of hundred meters higher above sea level. After the typical evening duties, today literally called for a yin yoga session to close the day, calming mind and body to recalibrate and be a better more present member of the family. A less irritable, stressed, rushed, judgmental on self and others human kind. This diary entry shall stand for as a metaphor of how so many of us go about our days, never stopping, holding our breath, to start deep conscious breathing. Welcome to the mom diary part one. @drschwank @unesurecent
