Solo Mums Matter: From Compassion Fatigue to Restoration and Flourishing

From Compassion Fatigue to Restoration and FlourishingDear Solo Mum,You matter dearly and are a treasure. If you have been struggling with compassion fatigue or burnout, this book encourages you to be self-compassionate in the administering of your life. Life is an energy game. You are the treasurer of your life energy and choose when and how it is administered and stored. This is a supportive companion of exploration through ten life energy treasuries. Solo Mums Matter is a gentle guide to discern your energy tonics and navigate your way from compassion fatigue to restoration and flourishing. In the process you will uncover your personal purpose and what is deeply meaningful to you as a woman braving the challenges of solo mumhood. A synergy of holistic information, sharing of stories, a kindling of joy, sense of adventure, taster activities, practical tools and strategies with a self-compassionate approach, coupled with making choices that resonate with you. This culminates in the building of your personal energy tonic treasury that can be called on routinely to restore, maintain and boost energy. I combine my experiences of being a proud solo mum having experienced fatigue, worked developing fatigue management education and support groups as a former occupational therapist and now as a Healing Touch practitioner. I am honoured to support solo mums and promoting a positive flow into family life.
