Pregnancy is a great excuse to finally take good care of yourself!
For some of us, and in this day and age where we women wear many hats, this is long overdue. Pregnancy is an excellent opportunity to consider not only the traditional ways to nourish yourself – get rest, be active, eat well – but also what nourishes you emotionally and sparks your enthusiasm. These ways of nourishing yourself may include taking a pottery class, commiserating with members of an expectant mommy group, reading solely for pleasure, enjoying massages, accepting help from others, indulging in long baths – whatever you know refuels you, energizes you, and are activities that you enjoy most.
You want your child to take great care of herself, and you can be a role model of that from the moment of conception.
What are you willing to do for yourself to nourish yourself physically, emotionally, and spiritually?
