"Did you know that it is .. technically against the Bureau's code of conduct to use officially, bureau issued restraints for ... " A soft attempt to clear his throat interrupts his thoughts. "For anything other than their intended purpose?" His words were a little more breathy than usual, fingers flexing outwards and relaxing slowly as she snapped the second cuff around his other wrist. "I mean -- I -- I ... won't tell if you won't."

Motherhood and Emotional Balance: Online Emotional Coaching for Moms by Gemby Lamia

Introduction to Motherhood and Emotional Balance

Motherhood is a beautiful and rewarding journey, but it can often feel overwhelming and emotionally draining. Balancing the demands of children, family life, and personal well-being is no easy feat. This is where Motherhood and Emotional Balance becomes essential. For mothers, maintaining emotional equilibrium can lead to a healthier, happier life, not only for themselves but for their families as well. Gemby Lamia's online emotional coaching for moms provides a vital resource for those looking to regain or maintain their emotional balance while navigating the complexities of motherhood.

The Emotional Challenges of Motherhood

Motherhood is often portrayed as an idyllic experience, but behind the scenes, many mothers struggle with emotions ranging from guilt to anxiety, and even sadness. The emotional labor involved in raising children, managing household responsibilities, and fulfilling societal expectations can feel exhausting.

The Pressure to Be a Perfect Mom

Society often places unrealistic expectations on mothers, creating feelings of inadequacy. Mothers are expected to do it all: balance work and home life, be emotionally available for their children, and maintain their own personal health. This immense pressure can lead to stress, anxiety, and even depression.

The Guilt of Putting Yourself First

Many mothers experience "mom guilt"—the feeling of guilt when taking time for themselves. The thought of leaving their children for a few hours to practice self-care or indulge in a hobby often feels selfish. However, self-care is vital to emotional well-being, and online emotional coaching can help mothers navigate these feelings.

Overwhelming Responsibilities

From managing household chores to planning activities for their children, mothers often juggle multiple responsibilities at once. This constant cycle can lead to burnout and emotional exhaustion, making it difficult to remain emotionally present for their families.

How Emotional Coaching Helps Mothers

Gemby Lamia’s online emotional coaching offers a personalized approach to emotional well-being for mothers. Through interactive sessions, mothers can explore and address their emotional struggles in a safe, non-judgmental space. Emotional coaching is a tool designed to help mothers rediscover their inner balance and regain control over their emotional health.

Building Emotional Awareness

One of the key benefits of emotional coaching is building emotional awareness. Gemby Lamia works with moms to help them recognize and understand their emotions, rather than suppressing or ignoring them. By becoming more aware of their emotional triggers, mothers can better manage their reactions and make healthier emotional choices.

Learning Coping Strategies

Through emotional coaching, mothers can learn practical coping strategies to deal with stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. These strategies might include mindfulness exercises, journaling, or relaxation techniques, all of which are effective tools for managing emotional health.

Gaining Confidence and Self-Worth

Online emotional coaching encourages mothers to focus on their strengths and personal growth. Through guided discussions, they can identify their accomplishments, talents, and achievements, helping to build their confidence and sense of self-worth.

Why Online Emotional Coaching is Ideal for Busy Moms

In today’s fast-paced world, finding time for self-care can be a challenge. Online emotional coaching provides a flexible solution, allowing mothers to access coaching sessions from the comfort of their homes and at times that work best for them. This convenience makes it easier for mothers to prioritize their emotional health without disrupting their busy schedules.

Flexible Scheduling

Online coaching eliminates the need to commute to a physical location, offering moms the ability to schedule sessions at convenient times. Whether it’s during nap time, after bedtime, or during a lunch break, coaching is available when it suits the mother’s lifestyle.

Confidential and Safe Environment

Many mothers find it difficult to open up about their struggles due to fear of judgment. Online emotional coaching provides a confidential and supportive environment, enabling mothers to share their feelings without hesitation.

Personalized Coaching Sessions

Each mother’s experience with motherhood is unique. Gemby Lamia tailors coaching sessions to address the specific challenges that individual mothers face, ensuring that each session is relevant and helpful.

Emotional Detox: What it Means for Mothers

An emotional detox refers to the process of cleansing the mind and emotions from negative or toxic influences. For mothers, this means releasing guilt, stress, and anxiety, and embracing emotional renewal. This cleansing process allows mothers to recharge and find peace within themselves, ultimately leading to better mental and emotional health.

Understanding Emotional Detox

An emotional detox isn’t about suppressing or avoiding emotions—it’s about addressing negative emotional patterns and clearing them out. By acknowledging these emotions, mothers can heal and cultivate healthier ways of dealing with stress.

The Power of Letting Go

Letting go of expectations and societal pressures is one of the most effective ways to detox emotionally. Through coaching, mothers can learn to release the unrealistic ideals of perfectionism and embrace their authentic selves.

How Gemby Lamia’s Emotional Coaching Supports Emotional Detox

Gemby Lamia’s coaching process encourages mothers to embark on an emotional detox journey by fostering self-reflection, mindfulness, and healing. The goal is to guide mothers through the emotional detoxification process, helping them clear out emotional blockages and achieve a healthier mindset.

Releasing Emotional Baggage

Emotional baggage can weigh mothers down, leading to frustration and burnout. Emotional coaching helps mothers identify and release past emotional wounds, enabling them to live more freely and authentically.

Practicing Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a key aspect of emotional detox, helping mothers stay present in the moment and reduce feelings of anxiety or overwhelm. By practicing mindfulness techniques, mothers can create a sense of inner peace, which is essential for emotional balance.

The Long-Term Benefits of Emotional Coaching for Moms

The benefits of online emotional coaching extend far beyond the immediate sessions. By committing to emotional growth, mothers can enjoy a long-term improvement in their emotional well-being, enhancing their relationships with their children, partners, and themselves.

Improved Mental Health

By addressing emotional struggles head-on, mothers can experience a significant improvement in mental health. Emotional coaching can help reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, leading to a happier and healthier life.

Strengthened Family Bonds

When mothers practice emotional balance, they set an example for their children, teaching them how to manage their emotions effectively. This leads to stronger family relationships, where emotional expression is encouraged and supported.

Conclusion

Motherhood can be overwhelming, but with the right support, it can also be incredibly fulfilling. Gemby Lamia’s online emotional coaching for moms provides the tools and guidance necessary for mothers to regain their emotional balance, manage stress, and experience a more fulfilling life. By prioritizing their emotional well-being, mothers not only improve their own lives but also enhance the well-being of their families.

Through personalized coaching, emotional detox, and a focus on mindfulness, emotional coaching offers a powerful solution for mothers looking to thrive in the midst of their responsibilities. It’s time for mothers to take control of their emotional health, invest in themselves, and create the life they truly deserve.

PROMPTS FOR LIES, DECEIT, AND VILLAINY

@momguilt: "You believe me, don't you?"

"I don't believe much of anyone."

It's true, and a philosophy of life for House, known for teaching anyone who worked under him that everybody lies.

But sometimes, out of the sheer goodness of his heart, he lends an ear to those whose stories are scarcely credible, as was her case.

"But do you have any reason to be lying to me?"

[drbrookeweinstein]

You are absolutely done. You can’t think straight.

And then it happens.

Your kiddo needs you. They are having a huge tantrum. Maybe it’s a stage 9 meltdown.

Either way, you have zero capacity to handle, support, or even look in the direction of your little one.

Somehow you muster up the strength to get in the ring. You try all the things yet nothing works. Then you lose it.

You don’t want to. You don’t mean to but it just happens.

Like an out-of-body experience.

I get it. I hear this over and over from all my clients. I want you to know you are not alone.

BUT. Yeah, I know… I wish there weren’t a but.

This cycle isn’t the best for our children. Now I’m not shaming the moment. Hear me again. I AM NOT SHAMING YOU. Sh*t happens.

But I know you hate that moment. Hate that it even happens.

You wish you could show up, be calm, present, and provide that safety for your kiddo.

And that’s possible.

That’s possible for you. And for your little.

But first, we must support you!

If you want to create and build that safety with your little ones, it requires sensory and emotional regulation for yourself.

And if you want that, my THRIVE program is the first place to start.

So give me a HELL YEAH if you want in on this amazing workshop, and I’ll send you all the details in your DM.

I promise you can have the life you dreamed of with your family.

XOXO Dr. B

Overstimulated. Overwhelmed. Over it.

Lately, I feel like everything is on me—from the moment I wake up to the moment I finally collapse into bed (if I even get to sleep). Morning, noon, night—every second, I’m minding the kids, trying to keep the house together, holding everything up while feeling like I’m falling apart.

There are bits of me scattered around the house, cracks and dents no one notices, and a deep need for repair that no one seems to acknowledge. I don’t get to be sick. I don’t get to have period pains. I don’t get to have a headache or even a moment to meet friends. My spark is gone, and I don’t even know where to begin looking for it.

My day is a cycle of waiting—waiting for my youngest to nap, waiting for my eldest to get ready, waiting for a moment of rest that never seems to come. And then my husband walks through the door, wanting as much from me as the kids, not realizing that I have nothing left to give.

Every day, it’s the same routine:

Wake up. Get the kids ready. Take the toddler to preschool. Get the baby down for a nap. Wash the dishes. Do the laundry. Tidy up. Make food for my husband. And before I can breathe, the littlest one is awake, demanding everything from me again. By the time dinner, bath time, and bedtime roll around, I am running on fumes, fighting my youngest to sleep while I silently fight my own exhaustion, frustration, sadness, and resentment.

And honestly? Sometimes I regret this life. I wish I had stayed at work, built my career, skipped marriage and kids. I love my children, I appreciate my husband, but they are all taking from me while I have nothing left to give. I don’t even recognize myself anymore—I am at my angriest, my ugliest, my most unfulfilled.

Is this regret? Is this depression? I don’t know.

Doing the laundry has become my escape, my excuse to be alone. I daydream about the life I could have had, and I find myself telling my single friends not to rush into marriage and kids, because their lives, just as they are, seem so perfect.

Anyway… hmmm. It’s whatever.

Oh man, that mom guilt is real...

So, this week, I was totally feeling the ‘working too much’ blues – guilt over feeling like I had been spending way too much of my time on work stuff, while simultaneously feeling like I had been slacking on the home front. 😅 (𝘐 𝘣𝘦𝘵 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯.)

It was then I decided I was going to try to get out of my guilt ridden funk and take a 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘺 guilt-free afternoon off!

I took the girls to our local library’s “Crafty Tuesday” crafts class. They had a great time doing a quick craft and checking out some library books... and you’ll never guess what happened?

𝘕𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦! 😅 My whole work life hadn’t imploded in my 2 hour absence, and I was able to take a much needed mental break as I enjoyed some quality time with my kids!

It was a great reminder that, although I think we all struggle with the mom guilt that is associated with being a working mom, it’s also OK to hit pause sometimes and focus on what needs attention without beating ourselves up about it!

What are some things you do when you start feeling the mom guilt creep in?

Just because something helps to build attachment, does not mean that a moment without it is going to harm attachment. Many requests for clarification so I have written an article to clarify my reasoning behind each item. The link can be found in my bio @responsive_parenting 10 Things that will NOT negatively impact your attachment relationship with your child 1. Leaving them alone for a minute, even when they are upset 2. Not being responsive 24/7 3. Getting frustrated and overwhelmed at times 4. Going back to work 5. Stopping breastfeeding 6. Not playing with them every time they ask 7. Taking time to yourself, even if it upsets them 8. Not always having their favourite cup/plate/blanket available 9. Not stopping the car when they are crying 10. Going away, without them J. Milburn @responsive_parenting “Love and attachment is a deep and profound experience that cannot be shattered or developed in one moment. It is a series of moments and connections that build attachment. Just because your child is mad at you, does not mean your attachment with them is broken, although they may feel a little disconnected from you and misunderstood, at the time.” J. Milburn Do you struggle with meeting your needs and your child’s? We all do ❤️ There are ways to plan for these not so perfect moments so you can feel a little less out of control and help process some of that guilt.

❝ yeah, we're all fucking suffering, abby, but i sure as hell don't see anyone else offering to do the shit i did. ❞ everything was so fucked up. she was exhausted. and everything made her angry, everything was a trigger. it wasn't even about abby. ❝ there's nothing you or anyone else can do. is that supposed to make me feel better? 'cuz you're really shitty at that, too. ❞ ultimately, she knows none of it is anyone's fault. it's a fucky situation they're all in. but what was there to do, if they wanted to survive? they just had to deal with all of it.

“ do you think you’re the only one here who’s in pain ? " she's not even talking about the way her own leg aches after mount weather , or the chip in the back of her brain. " do you think I like being helpless as I watch you suffer ? ”

Guilty Moming

Most days are pretty normal, as normal as it gets during a pandemic.  Today much to my surprise I had this overwhelming feeling of mom guilt. My kids are all in distance learning and struggling. They are struggling in school, at home, socially, etc. I spent time crying in the shower while listening to Kesha, because why the fuck not.  After about an hour or so (whenever the water ran cold) I got my shit together and started writing a plan, more like a list.  Things to help my children be successful in school, be social without putting them at risk of getting COVID, and finally realized this is not a failure on my part.  

Much to often parents feel this rise of guilt or overwhelming emotions that they cannot explain. As much as we might be struggling during this time so are our children.  We are all in this crazy shit together and there is no correct answer. What is working for some children might not work for others. What is working for some parents might not work for others. Trying to keep my sanity and not have to attend AA after this is over, well that is a different story.

Wanting to pop baby in for a couple of hours of daycare so I can get a break and catch up on the huge amount of cleaning I need to do and so it isn’t such a long break between daycare days but also so.much.guilt I don’t know what to do

[shevonne]

The older I get, I learn more and more to listen more than I talk. If someone asks for my advice, I will give it, but I also accept it when he/she doesn't take it. . . One thing people need to do more of is learn to deal with the consequences of their actions. You can't keep blaming everyone for the decisions you made. Yesterday I went to my son's last IEP meeting, and the teachers were doing all these things to accommodate him. I stopped them and told them I appreciate everything they are trying to do, but in the end, it's on him. He needs to make sure to get off his phone in class and pay attention. One of the teachers said, "Wow, can you come to talk to all of our kids? The parents usually blame us." . . My daughter has been making terrible decisions for awhile. She isn't listening to the excellent advice that people (teachers, family, and me) are giving her. She isn't taking the help that many people are offering her. Guess what? No one can control her. All the guilt that I have felt for years is gone, and I feel nothing but appreciation for the people who have tried to help and myself for everything I have tried to do as well. . . I had a family meeting with my teens and told them. I can't control you. You decide if you help around the house, do well in school, and keep your attitude in check. I control myself. As a parent, I only have to give you food, shelter, and love. Other than that, you don't need a car, carryout, tech, wifi, etc. I was going to a book club, so I didn't feel like cooking, so I told them they have to make their own dinner and ordered myself carryout. Guess what? For the first time, I felt no guilt. . . People, we need to do better and stop acting like we and the people around us are not responsible for our actions. . . . #successmindset #successfulmindset #momguilt #momguiltisreal #ownyourlife #victimmentality (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7_KhC8jlaO/?igshid=1a7ff5klbbtes
