The best way to move forward is to spend some time looking inward. Unfortunately, mothers often do not have the luxury of introspection.

Mothers are not just mothers. They are chefs, doctors, teachers, accountant, cheerleaders, decorators, and repairmen all rolled into one. It’s no wonder then that their schedules are packed with so many things, leaving them no reprieve whatsoever. They don’t have time to plan because they’re always in the middle of putting out one fire after another, managing one situation after the next.

If you fail to plan, however, you are planning to fail, so the best idea really is to take a step back, organize your thoughts, prioritize your action points, and map out a plan to achieve your life goals.

The Mindful Mom Re-Treat is the perfect opportunity for you to take back your life. A community event focused on refreshing, re-energizing, and re-centering modern moms, it is now on its second year of helping mothers take control of their lives by purposely looking at their roots, their strengths and weaknesses, their wishes and dreams.

The Mindful Mom Re-Treat is a takeoff from Mommy Mundo’s award-winning Mom Manifesto campaign which was conceptualized and created by Mommy Mundo Founder Janice Villanueva in collaboration with Registered Family Psychologist Alignay Michele S. Alignay, MA and Mommy Mundo Content Head Jing Lejano. The Re-Treat will be facilitated by Alignay, who is a mom of two.

The Mindful Mom Re-Treat happens on January 28, Saturday. There will be two scheduled retreats, the first from 9 AM to 12 PM and the second from 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM at Earth Kitchen, Bonifacio Global City.

Participation fee is P800, which covers snacks and the workshop kit. Register by texting (0908)8657245 with the subject line MINDFUL MOM RE-TREAT or going to bit.ly/mmre-treat5
