We also talk about the importance of slowing down and how our constant busyness might distract us from meeting our deeper needs. Rachel also shares how becoming a parent, particularly a mother, can force a reconnection with the body and serve as a powerful transition for personal growth. Rachel also shares practical tips for reconnecting with your body at any moment during your busy day.
In this episode:
- The challenges and growth accompanying parenthood
- The discomfort of slowing down and the societal normalisation of busyness
