As Mother’s Day approaches, a new book is offering mothers something beyond flowers and cards — a practical guide to rediscovering joy amid the demands of daily life.
Dr. Tiffany Moon, an anesthesiologist, mother of twins, and former cast member of The Real Housewives of Dallas, has released her latest book, Joy Prescriptions, which provides mental wellness strategies specifically tailored for busy moms.
“Joy is not a luxury — it’s a necessity,” said Dr. Moon. “It plays a critical role in both mental and physical health, especially for women who are constantly juggling the needs of others.”
Joy Prescriptions presents actionable tips for managing stress, prioritizing self-care, and embracing emotional well-being. Dr. Moon emphasizes the importance of reframing how mothers view help and self-maintenance.
“Asking for help is not a sign of weakness,” she said. “It’s actually a sign of emotional maturity and leadership. I tell moms that self-care is non-negotiable — it needs to be scheduled with the same seriousness as a meeting with your boss.”
Experts agree that recognizing mothers as individuals with their own goals and emotional needs is vital to supporting their overall well-being.
The book is now available for purchase online and in bookstores nationwide.
