I wish I had this book after I had my son! There’s so much insightful and helpful information here that is easy to read and easy to put to use in your daily life. I loved learning from this book and think it’s perfect for any new parent! There’s so many amazing tips on a variety of subjects, no matter what there’s bound to be something that will help or make you see things a little differently. I really appreciated the tips on calming down in very stressful moments and the journaling and writing prompts were my favorite! Overall I’d highly recommend this book for any new parents, it can help moms get through the hard days and can also help dads have a better understanding of what mom is experiencing.

Compassionate Self-Care for New Moms - Sharlene Hosek Review

Compassionate Self-Care for New Moms by Sharlene Hosek is an essential myth-busting read for new moms. Her personal touch makes the reader feel at ease from the first word. Sharlene helps to shift focus from traditional attitudes to a compassionate and healing approach to the life-changing events that motherhood presents.

The activities in Compassionate Self-Care for New Moms will assist the new mother into developing habits and routines to establish a well-balanced and guilt free mothering experience. Sharlene’s down-to-earth attitude is comforting and healing.

As Sharlene says, “Your self-care is not just a luxury; it’s a necessity. It’s a way of showing yourself that you are valued and understood.” She helps new mothers to realize that caring for themselves is essential to healthy mothering.

All new mothers will appreciate Sharlene’s wisdom and the Daily \Whispers of Strength is a free bonus she will send you when you buy a copy of Compassionate Self-Care for New Moms to help cement the affirmations of motherhood.

Packed with tips and reminders

The book provides tips, lists and actionable suggestions in a condensed read which is exactly what a new mum needs. More than that it's a friend by your side that understands what you are going through. New mums have neither the time nor the energy to complain, explain or alter schedules, living spaces, etc. The book provides doable self-care items to keep new mums afloat and fortified. It's a book to actively bookmark, annotate and dog-ear. The 'brain-dump' questions at the beginning of the book will release stuff you didn't know you were holding.

This book was okay. The overall message was great with constant reminders that self-care is not selfish. However, there were few if any revelations and it was all pretty obvious—eat nutritious food, get enough sleep and rest, exercise, meditate or find other ways of caring for your mental health, nurture supportive relationships, bond with baby, be grateful, get outdoors…duh? I ended up skimming some sections. For such a short volume, it got kind of verbose.

heartwarming and helpful

This book was heartwarming and helpful at the same time. It is like it said - a genuine friend on your side to navigate the tough journey of being a mother. It is written with a lot of compassion and heart and it resonated very well with me, as I am sure it will with others too. Very practical, insightful and yet interesting!
