Parenting offers incredible gifts: watching, guiding, and celebrating a child as they navigate their unique journey as a human being. But parenting can also be challenging, emotionally daunting, and stressful, and when a parent feels overwhelmed, they can lose that sense of trust in themselves and in their ability to support, nurture, and help their children manage the sometimes rocky path toward adulthood.
If a parent becomes hyper-focused on their children and does not also prioritize their own self-care, stress management, and ability to ground themselves, managing the demands and frustrations that come along with being a parent can feel impossible. In this book, wellness expert Mallika Chopra and social worker Kanika P. Chopra empower you to trust yourself again so you can build (or rebuild) trust in your ability to parent.
Through interviews with real parents who have learned how to manage their trauma and stress to better serve their children, and by focusing on a multicultural approach to parenting, Mallika Chopra and Kanika P. Chopra build up the concept of parent self-care. They encourage parents to engage their community for support, as well as utilizing yoga and mindfulness practices to set intentions for the family, and learning somatic awareness. In a simple, direct way, they examine the science behind best practices in conscious, intentional, embodied parenting, combining mindfulness and social/emotional understanding to give parents and caregivers an easy, practical tools to deal with the many twists and turns parenting demands.
