134. Mindful Wisdom from a New Grandmother

All "mother" relationships are wonderful AND complicated.   Grandmothering is an extension of mothering. It includes mothering, being a mother-in-law, and often a daughter too. These roles encompass the full spectrum of human emotions. They are full of worry, frustration, expectation, resentment, judgment, and self-doubt. They are full of worry about failure. They are also full of intense love, desire, connection, hopes, and dreams.   In this episode, Dr. Jessie Mahoney reflects on approaching both her grandmother and mother roles with mindful intention. Intention-setting is spiritual, energetic, and strategic. Intentions take advantage of neurochemicals to impact results. Intentions focus your attention on what matters most. And they help smooth and optimize the relationships that matter.   What matters most in your mothering relationships? Do you want to focus on the fun and the magic or the to-dos and what-ifs? What might be different if you focused on the awe and wonder?  When you look back 5 years from now, what will you be proud of? Coaching helps you find joy in all your mothering roles. Reach out if you want to bring more joy, magic, and fun into your mothering roles.  www.jessiemahoneymd.com If you want to develop a mindfulness practice, reach out to Dr. Liang www.awakenbreath.org *Nothing in this episode should be considered medical advice. #grandmotheradvice #physicianmomadvice #physicianrelationshipcoaching
