Mindfulness for moms and our little ones. Does it exist?

Mindfulness is a practice that everyone can benefit from but it can be especially important for new moms with the emotional rollercoaster and stresses that come with motherhood. Larissa Duncan, Ph.D. found that parents who cultivated a mindfulness practice before their babies were born reported lower incidences of stress, anxiety and depression during pregnancy and the postpartum period (Duncan & Bardacke, 2010). Kim Fuller, an award winning author, mindfulness expert and TEDx speaker, will be teaching a Mindfulness for Moms & Toddlers workshop on June 16th. Read or listen to her story and how mindfulness helped in her motherhood journey.
