This reassuring and practical handbook helps women navigate the seismic changes—in identity and emotion—that motherhood brings
Becoming a mother is one of the biggest changes a woman can experience. According to Harvard- and Yale-trained psychologist Dr. Nicole Pensak, it’s completely normal for a new mother to feel unlike herself, physically and psychologically different—to feel “rattled”. In fact, research shows that a woman’s brain shifts in real, biological ways very quickly. There are, however, also boosts in brainpower that can help to manage the distress and harness the advantages of the postpartum brain.
In Rattled, Dr. Pensak draws on her own experiences and insights gleaned from her clinical practice to provide practical and emotional support for new mothers, helping to relieve the anxiety and pressure for perfection in motherhood. She discusses mental health treatment and the many changes a mother undergoes and offers accessible scientific information, relatable anecdotes and strategies for self-care. An important book for new mothers and their families, Rattled offers the reader invaluable help to feel informed, validated and guided through the transformation of becoming a mother.
