Es una inquietud que escucho a menudo. Muchas madres comparten este mismo sentimiento, aunque no siempre se diga en voz alta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/en\/perfect-mom-advice\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/en\/perfect-mom-advice\/\">Read this column in English<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quiero empezar reconociendo todo lo que est\u00e1s sintiendo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Esa sensaci\u00f3n de agotamiento \u2014esa culpa\u2014 es una voz dentro de ti que no surgi\u00f3 de la nada. As\u00ed que quiero preguntarte: \u00bfde d\u00f3nde viene esa voz?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Existen investigaciones que demuestran que cuando le ponemos nombre a lo que sentimos, nuestro sistema nervioso empieza a calmarse. La am\u00edgdala, la parte del cerebro que responde al estr\u00e9s, comienza a serenarse. Por eso, el simple hecho de poder decir &#8216;me siento abrumada&#8217; ya es un paso poderoso hacia tu propio cuidado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cuando le ponemos nombre a lo que sentimos, nuestro sistema nervioso empieza a calmarse. Por eso, el simple hecho de decir \u201cme siento abrumada\u201d ya es un paso hacia tu propio cuidado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Si somos capaces de reconocer una emoci\u00f3n, en lugar de ignorarla o sentir verg\u00fcenza por ella, podemos empezar a entenderla. Y, a menudo, esa voz interior no est\u00e1 tratando de hacerte da\u00f1o, sino que est\u00e1 intentando protegerte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Existe un enfoque terap\u00e9utico llamado <a href=\"https:\/\/www.almaycorazon.org\/internalfamilysystems-ifs\">Sistemas de Familia Interna<\/a> (IFS, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s) que aborda precisamente esto. Nos invita a escuchar nuestras emociones como si fueran partes de nosotras que intentan ayudar. As\u00ed que, en lugar de alejar ese sentimiento, podr\u00edas preguntarte: \u00bfqu\u00e9 intenta decirme esta sensaci\u00f3n de culpa? \u00bfQu\u00e9 necesito en este momento?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>T\u00f3mate un momento. Respira.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parte de este agotamiento puede venir de una expectativa insostenible. Una sola persona no puede cargarlo todo. En muchas de nuestras comunidades, especialmente como latinas, se nos ense\u00f1a que una &#8216;buena madre&#8217; pone a todos los dem\u00e1s primero, incluso a costa de s\u00ed misma. Pero el equilibrio no se trata de hacer todo bien. Se trata de no hacerlo todo sola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As\u00ed que tom\u00e9monos un momento para analizar tu realidad:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u00bfQu\u00e9 tan apoyada te sientes en tu d\u00eda a d\u00eda?\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00bfC\u00f3mo se comparten las responsabilidades en casa?\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00bfEst\u00e1s cargando con la mayor parte del trabajo emocional?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Aqu\u00ed tienes un ejercicio sencillo: escribe todo lo que haces en un solo d\u00eda, desde que te despiertas hasta que te vas a dormir. Luego comp\u00e1ralo con la lista de tu pareja, si la tienes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Muchas mujeres encuentran que su agotamiento cobra m\u00e1s sentido una vez que lo ven plasmado con claridad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A partir de ah\u00ed, el trabajo consiste en pedir, redistribuir y practicar. S\u00ed, puede sonar inc\u00f3modo, pero es ah\u00ed tambi\u00e9n donde empieza el cambio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tambi\u00e9n quiero recordarte lo importante que es hacerte un espacio para ti misma. Como madres, el tiempo puede sentirse limitado. Pero incluso dedicar 15 minutos al d\u00eda para disfrutar de una taza de t\u00e9, salir a tomar aire o hablar con una amistad pueden ayudarte a reencontrarte contigo misma y recuperar tu energ\u00eda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A veces, lo que elegimos para descansar no nos devuelve realmente la energ\u00eda. Pasar tiempo frente a la pantalla del celular puede ofrecer un escape r\u00e1pido, pero tambi\u00e9n puede dejarnos sinti\u00e9ndonos m\u00e1s agotadas. Intenta observar qu\u00e9 es lo que de verdad te ayuda a reencontrarte, ya sea el movimiento, la naturaleza, la conexi\u00f3n, la m\u00fasica o esos peque\u00f1os instantes de alegr\u00eda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Es totalmente normal sentirse agotada considerando todo lo que sucede en el mundo en este momento; nuestro sistema nervioso tiene un l\u00edmite. Si notas que ya no puedes soportar lo que antes s\u00ed pod\u00edas, quiz\u00e1 sea una se\u00f1al de que algo necesita cambiar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Est\u00e1s haciendo un buen trabajo, mam\u00e1. Aunque a veces no lo sientas as\u00ed. Mi deseo es que recuerdes que sentirte cansada o abrumada no significa que est\u00e9s fracasando o haciendo un mal trabajo. Podr\u00eda significar que te sientes <a href=\"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/es\/fielder-burnout-querida-consejera\/\">agotada<\/a> (burnout).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intenta empezar por ti. Cu\u00eddate profundamente para que puedas seguir cuidando a quienes dependen de ti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Criar a las hijas e hijos de una manera sana y consciente puede ser uno de los actos m\u00e1s revolucionarios que existen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Querida Consejera <em>es una columna de salud mental dise\u00f1ada para las comunidades latinas de San Francisco.

Originally from Jalisco, Mexico, she has focused her career on building communication bridges in both the journalistic and academic fields. Since 2012, Katie has been part of El Tecolote, where her work as translator and copy editor has ensured the quality and accuracy of the Spanish-language content, both in print and on the newsroom's digital platforms. Her passion for education is reflected in her long career as a professor of Hispanic Literature at the University of Guadalajara, Mexico, a role she began in 2007 and has also taught online since 2011. In addition, throughout her career in San Francisco, California, Katie has actively collaborated with various nonprofit organizations to support the immigrant community. Her contributions have been key in editing and producing content, as well as in disseminating vital information for monolingual Spanish-speaking Latinos, helping facilitate access to essential resources and empowering the communities she serves. As of August, Katie Beas has taken on the role of Managing Editor of El Tecolote. Her mission is to strengthen the newspaper\u2019s connection with San Francisco\u2019s migrant and Latino communities through bilingual service journalism. To that end, she will expand access to Spanish-language content and reinforce the newspaper\u2019s presence in the Spanish-speaking community, supporting key initiatives such as the WhatsApp news service, the print and digital events calendar, resource guides and other editorial content designed specifically for Spanish-speaking audiences.","url":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/author\/katie-beas\/"}]}},"distributor_meta":false,"distributor_terms":false,"distributor_media":false,"distributor_original_site_name":"El Tecolote","distributor_original_site_url":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content","push-errors":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71822","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/88941"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=71822"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71822\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":71825,"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71822\/revisions\/71825"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/71823"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=71822"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=71822"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=71822"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=71822"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
