Mamas,
This blog is especially for you. We are hard on ourselves when it comes to "me time" we are always taking care of everything and everyone else. I too do it. But I've been working on self care and finding time to do something I want to do each day even if it's 10 mins a morning, afternoon, night whatever it may be I've been trying to get it accomplished! I have found that when I do so I am not only bettering myself but I am able to be a better mom & wife! I have always believed in taking care of yourself after you have a baby and I promised myself I wouldn't let myself slip but y'all it's hard when you become a mama it has taken me about 10 months to get in the swing of things and find some daily routines that work for us! I will list a few things I do that help me!
1.) I try to always take a nice bath once a day usually before bed
2.) I try to get dressed + put on some makeup each day I find that when I do that I am more productive and feel better about being a SAHM
3.) I just started using headspace and I try to mediate five mins a night
4.) Every Sunday I take two hours to do a hair mask, face mask, self tanner & style my hair for the week
5.) I get my nails done once a month and when they start to grow out I file them back and retouch them up if needed so they last longer!
6.)I'll light candles and try to have some wind down time before bed
7.) Every night before I crawl into bed I'll rub some essential oils + lotion on my feet and give myself like a minute foot massage
8.) I try to treat myself to a body massage every 2-3 months
9.) I try to eat healthy daily and then treat myself to something sweet every night as like a reward
10.) I'll buy a venti coffee that'll last me all week and each morning I get up that little bit of white chocolate mocha makes the early mornings seem less tough!
What are some things you do? I'd love to hear! I am currently loving my soaps from @oliveandfigshop the honey oatmeal bar is my favorite!
