Anuva went into this thinking “Mind over Matter” and she did it.
This episode is for all those moms-to-be who are confused, lost, bewildered and maybe even intimidated by the current state of their pregnancy.
Coming from a more conservative family, Anuva stood her ground (on most things) and chose where to put her energy. In pregnancy, energy is scarce, so what we can learn from this episode is to spend it on the things that are important to you and that you can change, don’t waste your energy worrying. I know, that’s easier said than done. But Anuva did it and that is encouraging!
Pregnancy is a rollercoaster, every time you think you mastered a challenge, a new one shows up around the corner. What I learnt in this episode is, accept what you can’t change. But don’t accept defeat right in the beginning. Research, see what’s possible. Try the unexpected even if it’s weird (safety first though!!). Talk to other women, find your village. And go in there like the boss that you are.
If you don’t feel like a boss yet, then use this time to get to know yourself and your needs - yes even if you feel angry, tired, sad and stressed. You don’t need to meditate to know yourself, because once that baby is out, you will need to remember who you are when you are tired, angry or stressed (or all of them haha. No, children are fun!).
In fact, they are so much fun that Anuva is already just weeks away from delivering her second baby! 🥳
