Giving a Reiki Treatment to an anxious mother-to-be this week, and meeting up with a dear friend whom I found through this article I wrote for The Mother Magazine, a couple of years ago, reminded me to share this article with you – hoping more mothers may find something helpful here to alleviate the worry that can come with being pregnant and being a mother. I wish that I had known some of this when I was going through the pregnancy phase of my life. I cannot turn the clock back for myself, but I can share what has been growing within me over the years, from the struggles I experienced.
