One of the ways I promised myself I'd starting "thriving" in motherhood this year was taking time for myself. As a wife and mom both of those are my favorite and most important roles I'll probably ever have but it's important since I'm the one taking care of people all day errrday to make sure that I take time for myself too!
I think this is an essential in mothering and I think all to often most mamas don't make time for themselves like they should. I'm guilty too.
That's why this year I promised myself I'd change that.
Wanna know my secret?
I realized that this was so important for me to do, vital even for me to make time for. To take time during the week and recharge! I told my husband how important it was as well, and I just put it as part of my regular schedule.
Usually once a week I like to get out of the house by myself, unplug and recharge. I run errands, sometimes I go get coffee and sometimes I walk the aisles of Target.
I also love to steal away "me time" moments in my bedroom with some of my favorite magazines and Netflix! This past Saturday was the first Saturday we've had free in weeks. I took two hours that day and locked myself in my room with my PEOPLE StyleWatch® & InStyle® magazines, a beverage and my Netflix!
It was a much needed break. Mamas need moments too.
But I am reminded that they don't have to be grand or even expensive at all. Just little moments that you can relax and make time for yourself to feel better and in turn that makes you a better more patient mama!
