Mothering is more than a role. It is an energy that provides, protects, counsels, and consoles.
The Elements of Mothering is a gentle, powerful guide for anyone who has ever needed a good mother, wanted to be one, or wondered why certain kinds of love still feel out of reach. Written by therapist, minister, and educator Sulola Morningstar (Ashley D. Harris, LPC), this digital workbook invites you to explore four core elements of mothering through story, reflection, and creative practice:
Earth – The Provider
Fire – The Protector
Air – The Counselor
Water – The Consoler
Inside, you will find teaching chapters, a self-assessment, real-life style vignettes, and an expressive arts workbook that help you see your natural strengths, your growth edges, and the places where you still deserve to be re-mothered.
This book is not about perfection or performance. It is about finally having language for what you needed, honoring what you carry, and choosing to offer a more whole kind of love to yourself, your children, and your community.
Inside this digital download, you will receive:
Gentle teaching chapters on each element of mothering
A 20-item Mothering Style Self-Assessment with scoring and reflection prompts
Mothering Style Vignettes that bring each element to life in everyday situations
A full Workbook section with writing, movement/music, and visual art practices for each element
A blessing and integration section on re-mothering yourself and others
Perfect for:
Mothers, aunties, grandmothers, and caregivers
Therapists, coaches, teachers, ministers, and youth workers
Adult daughters healing from stigma, shame, and trauma around care, sex, and worth
Anyone who wants to understand how they give and receive mothering and how to do both with more balance and compassion
This resource is designed to be sat with slowly. Bring your pen, your body, your story, and let the elements of mothering meet you where you are.
