Managing the Motherload: A Guide to Creating More Ease, Space, and Grace in Motherhood Reviews

This could be great to the mother struggling to find space for herself; the mindfulness stuff was VERY basic, but might be immensely helpful for some stressed out new mums.

I didn't quite read every chapter- I was skimming by the last few. I appreciated the author's personal stories and vulnerability, and a few of the practices (especially the metaphors) were useful to me.
I don't particularly believe in manifestation or practicing meditation, so much of the book felt like chatting with a really kind friend over coffee-- but knowing that what works for her is different than what works for me. I still appreciated the "chat"!
