Allattare? Si, ma a testa in giù e le immagini dividono…

C’è chi discute sul fatto se sia giusto o meno allattare in pubblico, c’è chi decide, invece, di allattare mentre pratica yoga. Questo è il caso di Carlee Benear, giovane texana che ha deciso di condividere sul suo profilo Instagram delle foto che la ritraggono in posizioni estreme, anche a testa in giù, mentre allatta la figlia Maramaylee.

Carlee non aveva smesso di praticare yoga anche durante la gravidanza e ha all’edizione inglese dell’ Huffington Post ha dichiarato: “Da quando mia figlia è nata siamo sempre state inseparabili, ma dopo qualche settimana ho sentito il bisogno di tornare ad allenarmi e l’ho fatto con lei, con rinnovata gioia”.

Le foto hanno conquistato il web in poco tempo, tanto da dar vita all’ hashtag #brestfeedingyoga, condiviso da centinaia di donne, con l’intento di incoraggiare le neo mamme a continuare a fare quello che le fa star bene e prendersi cura di se stesse, prima e dopo il parto.

Welcome to Day 7 of #anatomyofselflove Pose and affirmation @weirdomandys Information post Sponsors- @tataslings @pucket_pants @lovekikikins @katinka_dreads @stresslessbox Monday marks the summer solstice, the first solstice of the year before the winter solstice rolls around in December. Also known as Litha in Pagan and Wiccan traditions, the solstice is widely considered the first day of summer. In fact, it's the longest day of the year. After Monday, our daylight hours will decrease; by the fall equinox in September, daytime and nighttime will be equal in length. As you might expect, celebrations for the solstice go all day and often pay tribute to the sun. Certain Native American tribes have been known to perform dances and grow trees to better connect the earth to the sun, while Pagan traditions include ritual bonfires (to mimic the warmth of the sun) and feasts. Nowadays, modern-day Pagans honor Litha by meditating on their role in nature and raising awareness for solar energy. The summer solstice signifies the midpoint between the planting and the harvest. May's sensuality has subsided, but a sense of energy and activity remains. Most years, this is enough to make the solstice stand out on the calendar. This year, however, June's full moon, the Strong Sun Moon (according to folkloric traditions), falls on the same day as the solstice for the first time since 1948. To put it another way: This is a very rare — and cosmically advantageous — event. If the name didn't tip you off, the Strong Sun Moon represents the solar activity that permeates the entire month of June. It will rise just as the sun begins to set and remain relatively low in the sky. As with the solstice, you can celebrate this full moon simply by spending time outdoors. Monday is also a good day to take stock of what's present in your life (your relationships, job, and home). It's easy to take these gifts — and the day's extra hours of sunlight — for granted. Instead, make the choice to be especially mindful. The Strong Sun Moon is also said to encourage spontaneity, and according to the Astrotwins, it happens to be rising in adventurous Sagittarius this year

If you listen to other people tell you how you should be and if you allow people to place their fears on you, you will never live a day in your life. Just because no one has done it doesn't make it impossible. Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower. If you look at history, innovation doesn't come just from giving people incentives; it comes from creating environments where their ideas can connect. Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom. We can't be afraid of change. You may feel very secure in the pond that you are in, but if you never venture out of it, you will never know that there is such a thing as an ocean, a sea. Holding onto something that is good for you now, may be the very reason why you don't have something better. I have been and still am a seeker, but I have ceased to question stars and books; I have begun to listen to the teaching my blood whispers to me. Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate. At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want. And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself? #JalaluddinRumi #laotzu #cgjung #hermannhesse #cjoybellc #aristotle
