A Mom Is Born, by Rachael Hunt Elmore
Publisher Thomas Nelson
Mother of two, and mental health counselor, Rachael Elmore, specializes in treating postpartum depression and anxiety. Now she wants to equip new moms with the practical tools and biblical wisdom they need to care for themselves and become the connected, emotionally healthy mothers God made them to be.
Most moms understand the first year is going to be filled with joys and challenges, peaks and valleys. Even with all the preparation, they can still find themselves thinking, I knew this was going to be hard. Will it always be this hard? This isn't what I was expecting. What if I don't know how to take care of this baby, or myself?
Rachael Elmore has been there, and knows on a personal and professional level, just how challenging those early days and months of motherhood can be. In A Mom Is Born she takes expertise as a licensed and clinical counselor and pairs it with her deeply personal story of overcoming postpartum depression after the birth of her first son. She meets readers with practical tools like the New Mom Wellness Plan and a postpartum checklist to help them discover the balance between taking care of their new baby and taking care of themselves. Drawing from Scripture and therapeutic insights, Elmore teaches mothers how to:
- Develop a biblical plan for navigating new motherhood, the baby blues, and postpartum depression
- Stop intrusive thoughts and triggers in their tracks and overcome postpartum anxiety
- Process and manage all of the new emotions they are facing
- Start implementing small acts of self-care that will lead to emotional health
