Motherhood is often portrayed as a joyous journey filled with love, laughter, and fulfillment.

However, the reality is that being a mother can be immensely challenging, both physically and emotionally.

One phenomenon that many mothers experience but is not widely discussed is "Depleted Mother Syndrome.

Mom burnout refers to a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion experienced by mothers due to prolonged stress and overwhelming responsibilities associated with caregiving and household management.

Begin by identifying achievable tasks that can be completed within a single Pomodoro session. Instead of aiming to clean the entire house, focus on tasks like folding laundry, responding to emails, or writing thank-you cards.

Embracing imperfection also involves letting go of comparisons and judgment – both of others and of oneself. It's easy to fall into the trap of comparing oneself to other mothers or to the unrealistic standards set by society.

Early intervention is paramount in addressing postpartum depression effectively. Prompt recognition and treatment not only alleviate maternal suffering but also mitigate adverse consequences for the infant and family unit.

Heavenly Father,

I humbly come before you, grateful for the privilege of experiencing your divine love and grace through my motherhood journey.
