The month of May celebrates motherhood in every way.
As Mother’s Day approaches I am reflecting on the diversity of motherhood today. How can we be good mothers if we don’t learn to mother ourselves? If you have ever been on a plane you’ll recall the admonition from the flight attendant to “put on your own oxygen mask before helping those around you.” It’s ok to put yourself first. In fact, it is mandatory.
In order to nurture others, we must first learn to nurture ourselves.
How do we do that? In my article for LA Yoga, I encourage you to be the best mom you can be to yourself by sharing my own experiences with the mother in me.

Blessings to Mothers everywhere!

About Lorelei
Lorelei Shellist brings new meaning to the definition of "super model." Drawing from her own experiences as a runaway teen who followed her dream to travel the world and become an international couture model. Lorelei's delightful wit and sense of humor (as well as her "perfect fit" measurements) enabled her to serve as a graceful and spirited muse for top designers such as Karl Lagerfeld, Yves St. Laurent, Christian LaCroix, Bob Mackie, Geoffrey Beene and Giorgio Armani.
Lorelei writes candidly and boldly about life as a runaway, model, and her struggles with her fiancé’s addiction titled, "Runway RunAway A Backstage Pass to Fashion, Romance & Rock 'N Roll." Her life experiences have enabled her to pursue her passion to inspire others with her story of survival and success.
Her intrinsic connection with others has led Lorelei towards counseling Women in Prison and At-Risk Teens, teaching critical “Life Skills.” As a fashion expert, Lorelei encourages women to attract appropriate attention though Conscious Dressing while having fun expressing themselves with what they wear.
A graduate of the Masters Program in Spiritual Psychology at the University of Santa Monica, her appeal crosses many demographics and is particularly appealing to the baby boomer generation who have grown up inundated with confusing and contradictory mass media messages.
