The pressure to be happy... I'm posting this on I The pressure to be happy...

I'm posting this on Instagram to try and normalize that it's ok not to be ok.

Back in 2022, I did a lot of social media content, like 3 times a week, on Facebook, Instagram, and Red Note. I was trying to get private students. I didn't get any this way in the end, but all sorts of weird and wonderful guys did contact me on Facebook. 

This guy has contacted me off and on for English advice.

But yesterday, his comments really hurt. Yes, I do have times of sadness. But if I look at this profile picture, I don't look sad. So actually he made me a bit angry.

And so what if I have sorrow? 

It's because I loved.

It was great chatting to you!

On Wednesday at 11 am I'll be interviewing an expe On Wednesday at 11 am I'll be interviewing an expert on back problems.
Dr. Darren Subrayan is a registered chiropractor and the founding member of Dainfern Chiro in South Africa. With over 10 years of experience in chiropractic care, he takes a holistic approach to patient wellness, focusing on ergonomics, posture, and optimal desk setups to improve spinal health and overall well-being.

Dr. Darren spent five years in banking, giving him firsthand experience of the challenges associated with prolonged desk work, poor posture, and back pain, particularly lower back pain. This background has fuelled his passion for providing long-term solutions to spinal health issues rather than temporary relief.

Let me know in the comments what you would like to know from him, or what back problems you have. 

Let's always look after ourselves and our bodies so that we can be better moms for our kids.

Wanting to boost your child’s mental powers this Wanting to boost your child’s mental powers this year?

Xcel contains these key ingredients that make a difference:
1)	Bacopa: For memory and concentration, it’s neuroprotective and helps those neural pathways. (It was explained to us that it’s like fixing the potholes)
2)	Ashwagandha: a happy herb that also helps with stress levels
3)	Centella: helps get oxygen to the brain and calmness.

So that’s all well and good, but how did it make a difference in my child’s day?
Grade 6 has been a bit of an adjustment. They are no longer in one class. They have to walk around between classes and have the right books and not lose things. (One water bottle has already been lost).

My son said that he had improved concentration, he didn’t dawdle, and he felt like he had to get the work done. That is a win for me.
Now, if he can just find that water bottle…

I remember when these pictures were taken. Being I remember when these pictures were taken. 

Being a new mom of a newborn is hard. These pictures are beautiful, with the light next to the heater reflecting on a sleeping baby.

What you don't see are the hard times, when the baby is crying, and you are trying everything to help, when feeding is a challenge, and it's all a lot. These pictures were taken after one particularly hard crying episode.

How much worse is it when your baby is ill? Up on the blog, I've got a comprehensive post about fevers and what to do when they strike. Also: a temperature guide.

If you're a mom of a little one, I'm sending you lots of strength. They are super cute, but they also come with a lot of responsibility, and we try the best we can.

Keep Panado around for those unexpected moments. Every little thing we can do to make looking after a baby easier - we'll take it.
