How can you get what you need when COVID-19 is stripping away any village you still had? 

The current times are really hard, especially for new mums. We know what newborn mothers need in order to recover well and it is so dependent on having a village who can step up and support us. But it was already difficult to access these supports and that village before restrictions and physical distancing came along.

This months video blog is all about the five universal needs of mothers:

🍊Rest

🍊Nourishment and warmth

🍊Touch

🍊Connection with wise women and

🍊Connection with nature

I share some creative ideas for working out what these things mean to you, and finding ways to make sure you can have these needs met during COVID-19. There are tips for newborn mothers, but really it is relevant for any mother who is struggling and needing some nourishment at this time.

You also get a number of star appearances from my son who obviously didn’t understand the instruction “mummy is recording, do not come in” 🙂 So join in the fun and let me know if any of these ideas make a difference for you.
