92 \\ What To Do When You Hate Your Postpartum Body + Have Stopped Feeling Like Yourself

You don’t have to wait for your body to be back to a certain look or size in order for you to start loving it 😍 again. Yep, we’re going there today.

If you’re in a body that doesn’t feel familiar to you, especially after having babies, like I am right now, here are some tangible ways that can help you feel better exactly where you’re at:

-DO the affirmations. Yes, I’m sure we’ve all heard this one. But really - there is such power in our words! Choose the things you love about yourself & attach “I AM” statements to them.

Ex. I AM patient

I AM strong

I AM loving

I AM forgiving

Whatever it is - say it loud to yourself at least 1-2x a day, and watch your view of yourself transform ❤️

(Chances are - the view in the mirror is will change too!)

-DO movement that makes you feel GOOD, not bad. If you’re trying CrossFit, and you just feel so broken & exhausted, try something else. If yoga 🧘🏼‍♀️ bores you, join an aerobics class! Dance, swim, climb, swing - do whatever feels good to you RIGHT now & your body will thank you for it!

-DO make & eat food that fuels you. Don’t settle for the quick, easy & cheap food - you’re better than that mama! As are your kids - chances are you’re feeding them better than yourself right now!

This also includes “spiritual food” - you must nourish your soul too!

Struggling to do all these things at once as a busy mom? Feel overwhelmed with making food choices & trying to teach your kids about God?
