You have everything it takes to raise children who thrive.
Affirmations for Mothers was created as a means to inspire. While they have been inspiring women across Australia and now the USA since 2014, the idea was seeded from an activity to inspire myself.
During pregnancy I spent much time listening and using birth affirmations. I felt ready, inspired and prepared to have a calm birth but as the expected due date loomed it suddenly dawned on me – what am I going to do when the baby comes? What tools do I have to help me through the rollercoaster days that I anticipated were ahead of me.
I spent an evening getting inspiration online and through my mediation materials and sought wisdom from my mother, aunties, sisters and friends with children. I wrote them on the back of post-it notes ready to plaster around the house when my son arrived.
As the weeks and months passed by, those hand-written affirmations and positive messages provided much comfort and support, especially during the difficult days – and there were more than a few of those! These were the particular ones that got me through some tough moments:
A few months into motherhood, a niggling thought kept popping up. If I needed these affirmations, surely others do too.
This website is my way of sharing these wonderful tools with you. Affirmations have inspired me and I am confident they will inspire you too.
Affirmations are powerful tools. But if there is one message I really want to impart is it this:
You are the amazing vessel of change – affirmations are simply tools you use to help sharpen and carve out your journey.
Enjoy!
