Had the sweetest Zoom call today with a group of therapists called Wellness Wednesday. I shared the Free Mom Hugs story 💕 and walked away with two simple takeaways: 1️⃣ Be kind to yourself — self-compassion matters. 💛 2️⃣ Gargling can actually help calm your nervous system! 🫧 So next time anxiety shows up… pause, breathe, and gargle. Let’s try it! #WellnessWednesday #FreeMomHugs #SelfCompassion #VagusNerve #AnxietyRelief #LoveWins #MindBodyConnection | Sara Cunningham

Upworthy on Instagram: "We love her. ♥️🥰 @freemomhugs Sara Cunningham went on a journey from a conservative church to the pride parade - which transformed her relationship with her son Parker, who is gay. She then became a mom figure to dozens of other LGBTQ youth - offering them affectionate acceptance after their parents disowned them or distanced themselves. We think she is a hero and a beacon of hope - and we celebrate her allyship this #pridemonth! 🌈"

Can you relate? ⁉️ She found herself searching, feeling stuck and resentful, until something remarkable happened.
