Once more: We do not serve our fitness practice. It should serve us. If the way in which we practice fitness harms us, it is not serving us, and that violates many principles of basic self-care and Yoga which teaches non self-harm (ahimsa).

Motherhood by Ceanna
Motherhood I was never given the manual for motherhood, parenting, or single parenting, so like almost every other mother, I had to learn along the way. The battle between being a teen mom and living a teenage life came with its challenges, but I was able to overcome most of those challenges. Being a mother puts you in protection and survival mode. You keep going and pushing, and life often seems to be in a rush, especially when you have little children. You put your life on hold, not because you have to but because you want to. Some mothers go the extra mile and balance their personal growth and development, so they continue their education while working and being mothers. Motherhood can be frustrating, and some may say, well, that's what you signed up for. It's not what we signed up for. We signed up for an expression of love, but we know all the other things that come with it. Motherhood is frustrating, and we sometimes need a break. Society puts high expectations on mothers but in a world where it's ever changing those expectations often are not reality and mothers may feel a sense of guilt or disappointment. It doesn't make us bad moms. It just makes us human. Yes, we're going to be thinking of them and probably call you a few times to check on them, but we need a break. Some may be more privileged than others because they have someone to nurture their children in a similar or better manner than they would, so they are allowed to take a break and do what they would like to do and achieve goals, but some have to take a step backward and cater to their children. We rush and go, and in the blink of an eye, they're all grown and remember little to nothing that you would have done for them. Instead, they remember the times they wanted a hug, but you were "too busy," or they remember when they wanted to build blocks and play outside, but you were busy. Moments go by while you're busy and children grow up, and those memories won't be replaced. We can learn daily from and about our children if we take a moment to listen and be present in that moment. In a society where morals and values seem to be irrelevant to a generation that needs them more than ever, motherhood becomes a critical role. It's very challenging to teach a young lady to be independent in an attempt not to have a man mistreat her but to be self-sufficient while being submissive or not to be in a position where she cannot afford to leave where she's not valued, while, at the same time, raising a boy to be a man who will possibly meet a girl that's got all these barriers up. Our daughters are possibly going to go through an identity crisis from time to time, and we may miss that moment to guide and nourish them if we're too busy. Challenges arise when raising a boy to become a man in a society that tries to emasculate men or change their role and value in society. Our boys hold an entire generation within them, so let's nurture and speak life into them. Live in the moment with your children, cherish moments, and practice mindfulness because they grow up and nothing else seems to matter. Teach them values and instill morals. They soon become adults and parents, and you're now trying to enjoy the moments as grandparents.

Extreme Gender Reveals Party NEEDS TO STOP!!!!. Content Warning.
Parents-to-be are excited for their soon-to-be bundle of joy coming into the world. Before they get ready for the birth of their child, an expecting couple or families or friends set up a gender reveal party to find out if they are having a boy or a girl. Now I am not going to lie I love gender reveal parties even when it's emotional, hilarious to watch the children's reaction to find out their soon-to-be sibling is going to be a sister or brother, or even when it fails.

Diary of a Sad Not Pregnant Lady. Content Warning.
Do you remember being a little girl playing with baby dolls? It was one of my favorite things to play with when I was a child. I think, even back then, I knew that my goal in life was to be a mother and to have a family. Now at the ripe age of 26 that is the only thing I can think about. I havn't fully figured out what I want in life yet. I've changed my mind so many times. But one thing that has never changed was the fact that I want to be a mother. Starting a family is supposed to be easy. Starting a family is supposed to be fun. Thats what people say, anyway. However, 1 in 6 women will struggle with infertility. I am 1 in 6.
