Celeste Yvonne

4.9/5 (28820 ratings)

Description:Alcohol isn't going to fix the systemic lack of support for mothers--and pretending it's the solution to surviving motherhood does more harm than good.A wine glass etched with "Mommy needs wine"; a T-shirt that says, "I wine because my kids whine"; an infant's shirt proclaiming, "I'm the reason mommy drinks." This is Mommy Wine Culture: the pervasive message that alcohol helps us survive motherhood. But according to writer and mother Celeste Yvonne, it's a symptom of a much larger issue: the mental load of motherhood, a burden born from outdated family norms, traditional roles, and a systemic lack of support for moms--all of which impact mental health.In this refreshing, honest take on some of the most pressing concerns for twenty-first-century parents, Yvonne mixes research, cultural references, her own story, and engaging interviews with other moms who sought refuge in wine and found a way out. Drinking to blur the tumultuous days of parenting is a Catch-22: It actually keeps parents from being present during this precious time. It's Not about the Wine lifts the veil on what's really plaguing mothers, offers tangible tips for how to lighten the mental load, and paves a way forward for all who want to survive and thrive during these weary and wonderful years. From advice on talking about the mental load with one's partner, to curating the media we consume and the company we keep, to deep reflections about how we use alcohol to manage burnout and stress, Yvonne helps readers recognize the messaging of Mommy Wine Culture for what it is: a distraction from what's really needed.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
