Letting go and redefining relationship with adult children//
Navigating the complexities of estrangement as a mother can be emotionally challenging and overwhelming. In this video, we'll explore valuable guidelines that many mothers find helpful in coping with estrangement from their adult children.

One important aspect is setting boundaries. For instance, you might decide to limit the frequency or nature of communication with your estranged child to protect yourself from emotional turmoil.

Self-care is crucial in this journey. Prioritizing your mental and emotional health involves engaging in activities that bring you joy, seeking support from friends or a therapist, and practicing self-compassion.

Respecting your child's need for space is another rule to consider. Understanding that they may need time to process their feelings, it's important to respect their decision to distance themselves and avoid pressuring them for contact if they're not ready.

Instead of focusing on blame, which can lead to further resentment, it's beneficial to focus on understanding and healing. This shift in mindset can create a healthier emotional space for both you and your child.

Lastly, seeking support is vital. Whether it's joining a support group, confiding in friends, or seeking professional help, having a support system can make a significant difference in navigating the challenges of estrangement.

Throughout this video, we'll delve into each of these guidelines, providing examples and insights on how to apply them in your unique situation. Join us as we explore the challenging terrain of motherhood amidst estrangement, offering practical strategies for finding peace and healing.
