Joelle,
I enjoyed this book。 It was encouraging and had some really great insight。 While there wasn’t a lot that i hadn’t heard here and there before, it was great to see it all together—in the same context。 She does a great job of weaving in scripture, and she offers practical thoughts and advise and real and relatable examples。 This was a quick read, and I would recommend it! I wish it had been around when I had little kids!

Is it possible to bookmark more pages than not in a book? If so, More Than a Mom: How Prioritizing Your Wellness Helps You (and Your Family) Thrive is that book。 Each chapter goes further beyond the ways you can be a better, more fulfilled mother with examples of how your actions are examples to your children for their future development。 I LOVED that!

It's hard to excuse self-care in a vacuum and it was so encouraging to see how a healthy mom really should be a priority for the family as a whole。 In addition, each chapter also included reflection questions, encouraging the reader to really get involved with her own development and come to peace with the knowledge of her worth。 Filled with love and advice that jumps off the page to give the reader a warm hug and a spiritual boost, this should be on everyone's "buy for myself and a friend" list。 。。。more

Wren,
Kari Kampakis's More Than a Mom: How Prioritizing Your Wellness Helps You (and Your Family) Thrive has been an incredibly timely read for me。 I don't think I am overstating how exceptional it is when I say that it could truly change a mom's life; and as a result, her family's。 Kari, a mom of four, knows what being a mother asks of us; to love, to serve, to give up sleep, to cram more into days than should be possible。 However, when moms are taking wonderful care of their children or families, so Kari Kampakis's More Than a Mom: How Prioritizing Your Wellness Helps You (and Your Family) Thrive has been an incredibly timely read for me。 I don't think I am overstating how exceptional it is when I say that it could truly change a mom's life; and as a result, her family's。 Kari, a mom of four, knows what being a mother asks of us; to love, to serve, to give up sleep, to cram more into days than should be possible。 However, when moms are taking wonderful care of their children or families, sometimes they're taking horrible care of themselves。 In More Than a Mom: How Prioritizing Your Wellness Helps You (and Your Family) Thrive, Kari outlines ten things moms should and can be aware of as they care for their families; things that can improve their lives, their minds, and their hearts。 These include: knowing their worth; rest; friendships; dealing with stress and anxiety; choosing joy; quitting negative self-talk; making peace with their bodies; feeling capable; embracing our purpose; and living in hope。 I know that these all sound wonderful, and they are! But Kari doesn't leave her readers hanging with lofty-sounding ideals。 Instead, she unpacks each of these with wisdom, humor, kindness, Scripture, and then, the actual ways women can implement them。 I recommend this to you SO highly。 It is a remarkable book that will come alongside you, tired and overwhelmed mom, and help you understand how to make changes that will bring you joy, peace, and rest。 It truly is wonderful。I received a copy of this book from FrontGate Media。 All opinions are honest and my own。 。。。more
