Start embodying your version of a vibrant mama through every decision you make and habit you create
Life is made up of small daily decisions.
Tiny choices become habits.
And our habits create our days.
Our choices ultimately shape the people we become, the lives we live and the impact we have on our families and the broader community.
In each moment, you can choose how you want to act, what you want to focus on and how you want to spend your time. This manual is here to support you in making tiny intentional choices and positive microshifts. So, before you know it, you will have let go of the overwhelm and created a life that energizes you. It will become second nature to show up as the attuned, present and joyful mama you want to be.
Work your way through this journal, completing the activities as they come up in sequential order. You can either print this guide or complete the activities on a digital copy.
Once you have gone through the entire manual, it is helpful to go back over various exercises within it to strengthen your new skills, solidify new habits and start applying your newfound clarity in your daily life.
At the end of the manual, there is the Vibrant Mama Roadmap. Keep this somewhere you can access easily. Refer to it often in the early days and weeks of implementing the material in this manual. This is the culmination of your work throughout the entire handbook. It is your quick reference to guide your choices and actions as you go about your day to move you closer to being that energized, content and self-assured mom you know you can be.
You can use this manual alongside my online program, The Motherhood Reset. But if you are time-poor, simply going through this manual on your own will nudge you closer and closer to being the vibrant mama you want to be with every new insight and activity.
The manual is also a great companion to my book series, Vibrant Mamas. In particular, working through this manual in conjunction with reading the first book in the series, The Motherhood Reset, will reinforce the skills and habits to get you thriving even sooner.
Clinical Psychologist
Hi lovely mama! I’m Dr Hilary Claire: a clinical psychologist specializing in nutritional and environmental medicine, a yoga teacher and a vibrant mama to two little boys.
I know how to help you move out of exhaustion, depletion and overwhelm not only because of my professional training as a psychologist, but because I too have lived the ups and downs of early motherhood. I know postnatal depletion, overwhelm and burnout firsthand. I know what you are going through - even though our journeys are unique and we all have different challenges.
We live in a world that makes motherhood so much harder than it needs to be for us mamas. We often struggle to prioritize ourselves and our needs as we focus on meeting our little ones’ needs. We can easily end up burning out. This is why I work with moms to help them build healthier, happier and calmer families, as well as reconnect with their true selves. I want to support you to thrive in motherhood – not just survive.
I hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, have completed several post-graduate courses in nutrition, environmental medicine, and functional medicine, and have focused my career, both in therapy and research, on helping parents and kids improve their health, happiness and resilience.
I help moms thrive in their many roles by showing them how to implement simple therapeutic-based and research-backed strategies to be holistically healthy and incorporate self-care into their daily lives – an essential foundation of thriving.
I’m here to guide you to achieve a happier and healthier life by first taking care of your wellbeing – an important stepping stone to better family health and your long-term health and happiness.
Being a mama can be challenging. Get the support you need and deserve!
I’d love to help you become a thriving mama.
