Healing Postpartum Depression
Submitted by: Kelly Nordstrom
St. Paul, MNI am a married mother of two living my dream of becoming an author and soon will be empowering women suffering from postpartum depression!
I suffered from postpartum depression, psychosis, and OCD after the birth of my first child. After watching The Secret, I learned that I actually ATTRACTED this condition. My daughter was incredibly colicky, screaming all day. I wished over and over again that something bad would happen to me so I could blame my failure as a mother on something outside of myself.
I recovered without medication. I simply changed my thinking to, “I AM A GOOD MOTHER.” I surrounded myself with only positive things and created a gentle, safe, happy environment to cradle my life.
More than recovering, I propelled my life to an even higher level. When I read The Secret, I was stuck in a job I resented. My dream was to write a book. So I wrote right in the pages of The Secret, “I am so happy that I am an author. I am grateful for my flexible life and I get to see my daughter off the bus after school. I am inspiring and healing women with postpartum depression.”
Guess what I am doing two years later? Writing a book and launching a business to help inspire and heal women with postpartum depression. I will teach them The Secret and how to be Positively Powerful in this world. I also love seeing my daughter get off the bus every day after school. Our family is peaceful and harmonious… exactly the way I dreamed it would be. Thank you for empowering me to grab my dream like a celestial cowgirl roping in the sun, moon, and stars!
