While mothers prioritise their families and children over themselves, it’s important to remember to take time out for some well-deserved self-care. On the occasion of Mother’s Day in 2015, Malaika Arora gave an interview where she said, “I believe a lot of mothers forget about themselves while trying to take care of their families. They become too selfless. I feel every woman should be a little selfish in a good way. There will always be a hundred things to do but you must remember give some time to yourself too. Treat yourself for all the hard work that you put in; go for a spa or on a shopping spree, whatever makes you happy. Don’t always compromise; keep some time for yourself too.” A great tip to learn from this fit and fabulous mother of a handsome young man, Arhaan.

Another recent mother of two, Neha Dhupia has been a great inspiration for a lot of mothers. The actor and host stresses on the importance of letting people in and sharing how you’re feeling with those closest to you. Her advice is to “Be vocal and talk to everyone about what you are feeling. I have always said it out aloud that postpartum depression is a real thing. Because when you are pregnant you have a lot of people to look after you but once you give birth and everything changes, there are a lot of hormones that kick in. I have been very lucky because I have a wonderful husband, and great family support.”
