Mamaste is a holistic guide to becoming a balanced, authentic, and joyful mother. Written by Lori Bregman, a celebrated doula, healer, yoga teacher, and parenting coach, the book explores five styles of mothering and offers a nonjudgmental approach that honours and supports every woman's unique journey through motherhood.
Introducing the "five expressions of motherhood" - Action Mama, Flow Mama, Rebellious Mama, Vulnerable Mama, and Free Mama - each style represents a different approach to motherhood. These aren't divisive expressions – Bregman believes that every mother contains all five expressions and expresses them in different ways at different times; the goal of Mamaste is to cultivate a healthy balance between all five. Brimming with foundational tools, meditations to build self-awareness, yoga practices, and relatable stories based on each expression, Bregman takes readers through a process of self-discovery that ultimately leads to a happier and healthier experience for both mother and child.
