Mindful Snacks for Mom-Brains episodes
- Self-Care as Strategy
In this first episode of Mindful Snacks for Your Brain, Anastasia from Anaya Yoga introduces the six pillars of self-care and shows you how to turn them into real-life practices. Instead of feeling like another thing on your to-do list, self-care becomes strategy—a way to support your body, mind, and spirit so you can show up with more balance and joy.
You’ll learn:
- Why sleep is the keystone of self-care and how it impacts your brain’s ability to stay calm and focused.
- A simple bedtime reset ritual you can try tonight.
- A guided Metta meditation to ground yourself in compassion.
- A 30-second gratitude practice to shift your mindset and build resilience.
Whether you’re new to self-care or ready to deepen your practice, this episode gives you small, doable steps you can start today.

About Mindful Snacks for Mom-Brains
From the publisher's feed
Hi, I’m Anastasia — founder of Anaya Yoga, mother of two (ages 3 and 7), and a woman who realized it was time to take responsibility for her own happiness and health. Not by waiting for a partner,…
parents, or society to make things easier, but by shifting my mindset, softening expectations, and choosing practices that truly nourish me.
This podcast is for mothers who give until there’s nothing left, hold themselves to impossible standards, and feel the pressure to keep it all together with a smile. If you’ve ever tried to “earn” your rest, silence your needs, or carry everyone else’s, you’re not alone. I’ve lived this too — and I’m done with the burnout.
As a yoga and mindfulness teacher, I share tools, stories, and practices that turn self-care into strategy. Together, we’ll break old patterns and create more balance, compassion, and joy — not just for ourselves, but for the families and lives we love.
