9: Making Mindful Choices Everyday

“All you have is time - it's what you do with your time...you're as busy as you want to be.” 

In this week's Ambitious Mum powerful episode, Roberta Brown aka The Mindful Mum of London gives us a huge reminder:  “All we have is now, there’s no more rehearsing, we are nobody in the grand scheme of life, just live, live, live!”

After several family traumas, including a lifelong fear of death and health anxiety, Roberta had a breakdown from which she had a big road of recovery ahead. Therapy then led Roberta to find mindfulness and this particular practice just clicked with her, living in awareness became the new meaning to her life - so much so she felt called to teach this to others, giving them the tools to be aware of their own strength, autonomy and choice over how they live their life. Roberta, through mindfulness, now "teaches people to be present".

 

Kate and Roberta also talk about:

 

✨ Understanding the basics of mindful meditation
✨ 'Waking up', being aware of our power within a huge universe
✨ Your right to rest and care for yourself  
✨ Guilt around taking time for yourself
✨ Mirroring our family conditioning
✨ Using self-compassion in daily life and becoming a self-healer
✨ Understanding that our parents did the best they could, with what they knew
✨ How to reparent ourselves

✨ Growing your self-care toolkit 
✨ Grounding and regaining control through our breath

✨ Knowing when to stop, pause, say no and practising boundaries without constant       explanation
✨ Understanding being here right now
✨ Being grateful for every minute and being content with all the small things
