Oh the holidays! It’s the time for gift giving, merry making, and stressing… A LOT! Moms take the brunt of holiday stress. Between (often) still working full time, worrying about (and deciding on) gifts, setting up or decorating the house so it looks festive, then choosing and cooking a menu for the family get together, it isn’t a wonder that many moms tend to dread the holidays instead of being excited.
Discovering the Indoors with BLIMS X MM
We know in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we all have mostly been stuck indoors. Many of us have been experiencing cabin fever, and claustrophobia. This is why Mommy Mundo, together with BLIMS Fine Furniture decided to team up and host a Facebook Live to help give our community some tips and tricks on how to spruce up your space and celebrate the great indoors!
Mom Spotlight: Kit
Kit Malvar Llamas is a regular on the Mommy Mundo screen. We have seen her take us through the first steps of conscious parenting in the Mom School Series, helping the moms in our community re-examine and evolve their parenting paradigm from starting the work with us as parents first, and get an understanding of why we parent the way we do.
Your Holiday Self-Care Set
The holiday rush is rushing in, and Christmas 2021 is starting to feel like what Christmas was like two years ago! Cars are causing heavy traffic, people are back in shopping malls, and invitations to get togethers are becoming more frequent. That means stress levels are slowly rising, if not high already.
How to turn routines into self-care rituals
What are your self-care rituals? Do you enjoy your self-care rituals or do you sometimes view them as chores? Acts of self-care should always be occasions we look forward to. If they have started to feel like chores, they may have slipped from ritual to routine.
Exploring Your Personal Style
As a woman (and as a mom), you have undoubtedly seen your personal style evolve through the years. Maybe you followed trends in your teens. (Raise your hand if you wore bell bottoms.) Maybe you wore so many hand-me-downs you ended up with a preference for vintage clothing. (Thrift store shopping, anyone?) Maybe you became a mom and realised giant t-shirts or even loose cropped tops were the way to go. (Need that breastfeeding access!)
Expo Mom 2021: Mindful Mom!
How do we mind our minds? What does it mean to be a mindful mom? This 2021, Mommy Mundo has endeavored to answer these questions. Each month, mindfulness was focused on a theme that sprung from the Into the Mom Mind survey conducted in March of 2021. Bringing all of the year’s learning and discoveries together is Expo Mom 2021: Mindful Mom on November 12, 13, and 14, 2021
Passion, Work, & Profit
So can you turn something you love doing into something that makes money? Yes. Does everyone who wants to start a business or side hustle need to start with something their passionate about? No. In fact if you need to earn a living first, find ways to do that before exploring your passions. Making passion into profit needs time, energy, and experimentation. Making a living first, helps you create that space.
