Virgin offers empowering advice and tangible strategies to arm every parent with the mental and physical strength they need to successfully navigate motherhood.
As a mother of four, nutrition and health expert, and author of three bestselling books, Virgin is a beacon of encouragement in a hectic world. Drawing on her own experiences as well as the stories of successful moms everywhere, she shares her formula for becoming a Warrior Mom. Using the 7 Secrets of Warrior Mom, mums everywhere can be their bravest, strongest, and most resilient selves.
The first Secret of Warrior Mom is Mindset. Motherhood is a marathon, not a sprint, and having the right attitude is the most important part of the journey. Virgin encourages a no-excuses mindset, which counts both body and mind as worthy investments. With that mindset, moms become better equipped to handle the challenges that each day brings—regardless of life’s uncertainties.
The second Secret of Warrior Mom is Move. Exercise is often the first thing to be dropped from busy schedules, but to remain strong and being a Warrior Mom, physical activity needs to be a priority. Virgin encourages moms to move in whatever way works best for them—whether that’s dancing, jumping rope, swimming, or using a gym—the goal is to make physical activity a habit.
The third Secret of Warrior Mom is Nourish. Healthy Eating is the cornerstone of nutrition and good health. Rather than striving for perfection, Warrior Moms recognize that health isn’t about dieting, but about making small sustainable changes that promote physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. It’s also about enjoying the benefits of eating in a nourishing way.
The fourth Secret of Warrior Mom is Rest. Rest is just as important as exercise and nutrition, and Warrior Moms recognize its importance. Whether it’s a yoga class, meditation, journaling, or reading, taking the time to rest and recharge will make you more effective in all facets of motherhood.
The fifth Secret of Warrior Mom is Refuel. Whether it’s a walk in nature or a conversation with a friend, dedicated time with selfcare is a way to replenish your spirit. Reflection helps Warrior Moms to reconnect with their inner wisdom and overcome difficult challenges.
The sixth Secret of Warrior Mom is Realize. As a mom, it’s easy to get lost in the whirlwind and daily chaos of motherhood. Taking the time to pause and use tools like vision boarding, journaling, or positive affirmations will help Warrior Moms to regain clarity and stay focused on their goals.
The seventh and final Secret of Warrior Mom is Renew. Renew your commitment to the Warrior lifestyle on a regular basis and be sure to laugh, love, and have fun. By opening ourselves up to new experiences, moms have the opportunity to learn and grow.
For moms everywhere, Warrior Mom: 7 Secrets to Bold, Brave Resilience is an inspiring read that offers tangible strategies to help every parent pursue their version of success. By incorporating these seven Warrior Mom Secrets, mothers can gain the confidence, strength, and courage to achieve anything.
