Balancing Self-Care And Motherhood

The best thing you can do is figure out how to incorporate self-care practices into your everyday life. Hopefully, the tips provided above give you a good headstart… CONTINUE READING >> 

“Care for yourself,” they say. “You can be an effective parent if you don’t prioritize your health and wellness,” they proclaim. Sure, these things may be accurate, but any woman that’s also a mother knows this is no easy feat. Whether you’re single or in a committed relationship, raising one child or multiple children, your needs never come first. You’re so busy trying to ensure that your kids get everything they need and want that there’s very little time or energy for self-love.

Of course, you maintain proper hygiene, tend to your skin and beauty routines, wear appropriate fashions, eat (when you can), and get sleep (far less than you need). Doing the bare minimum ensures that you look presentable in public (and maintain your sanity). Although you know it’s not enough, trying to fit health, wellness, and self-care practices into your day while juggling the responsibilities of motherhood feels like a mission impossible.

Consequences Of “Family First” Mentality

The idea of sacrificing yourself and your needs for the sake of your family seems noble. They mean so much to you that you’d go to any lengths to ensure they live happy, healthy, and fulfilling lives. Though nice in theory, the “family first” mentality comes with side effects. When you ignore your health, wellness, and happiness, it causes a decline in your life. You subject yourself to the risk of medical conditions and mental illness. You also lose your ability to be there for your loved ones.

Ultimately, prioritizing self-care is a must. If you’re having difficulty balancing your needs with your role as a mother, these tips should make things easier for you.

Get Up Earlier

Feeling like you don’t have enough time in the day to practice self-care? Perhaps it’s time you start getting up earlier in the morning. Waking up at least an hour or two before your kids gives you uninterrupted time to focus on yourself. You exercise, can take a shower, complete your skincare and beauty routines, get dressed, and have a well-balanced breakfast, and then wake the kids.

Quick And Healthy Meals

It’s not uncommon for moms to skip meals, eat scraps from the kid’s plates, or opt for takeout when it comes to eating. Unfortunately, continuing this habit causes you to miss out on nutrition your mind and body need to function correctly. While you may not have time to make nutritious gourmet meals seven days a week, there are some pretty good alternatives out there. You can find quick and easy recipes online to prep meals in under an hour that are good for you and your family. Lots of women swear by meal delivery kits for quick, diverse, and delicious meals.

Natural Wellness Products

There are several products on the market designed to enhance the well-being of women. These natural aids can help with everything from mental clarity and focus to low blood sugar and pain relief. There’s nothing wrong with trying a few of these products, like white label african mango capsules, if they’re going to help you look and feel your best.

Take CBN isolate, for instance. It’s a cannabidiol derived from the hemp plant. This chemical compound has been proven to help relieve pain, soothe stress and anxiety symptoms, and improve sleep. There are also products like herbal teas, supplements, and vitamins you can consider.

Another is probiotic supplements for women. Probiotic supplements help balance vaginal pH, improve digestion, and promote urinary tract health. Women encounter health issues that are unique to them. That is why women should take note of their specific needs and take special care of their bodies to live a long healthy life.

Create A Sleep Schedule

Sleeplessness is a problem that most moms complain about. Whether you’re tending to the needs of your newborn or up all hours of the night trying to finish other obligations, sleep evades you. As adequate sleep is essential for your health and wellness, creating a schedule and routine is recommended. Set a time you’ll go to bed. Before hitting the hay, wind down with a soothing shower and curl up with a good book. It gets your body in a routine that assists with getting better sleep.

As a mother, putting the needs of your children first seems to be the natural thing to do. Be that as it may, this practice can have significant consequences for you and your family. The best thing you can do is figure out how to incorporate self-care practices into your everyday life. Hopefully, the tips provided above give you a good headstart.

Not Ready to Take the Plunge? Small Steps Toward Gypsy Nesting

By Susan Doktor

Many gypsy nesters relate a common experience: the toughest part of being a gypsy nester is actually making the decision to become one.

And that’s not surprising. No matter how much we may love to travel, most of us have always had someplace to come home to. Often, our very identities are tied up in our homes. We’ve spent umpteen hours planting the gardens that reward us each spring. Years building our dream kitchens. We’ve traveled miles and miles, collecting objects that reflect our spirits and experiences. We’re neighbors who sit on the boards of neighborhood associations and lend a hand to other neighbors. And we wonder, how exactly do we give all that up?

Well, countless gypsy nesters do and live happily ever after. But for others, it’s too big a jump to make all at once. So they take a different path to the gypsy lifestyle—one that slopes gradually and doesn’t involve making quite so scary a leap. Many make downsizing—trading a big, empty nest for a small one they visit periodically—part of their gypsy lifestyle plan. If you’re hesitant to commit completely to nomadic living, that’s a strategy that might work for you, too.

Downsizing: Everybody’s Doing It

For most people, the very phrase downsizing calls to mind empty nesters and people of retirement age. That’s not an unreasonable association. According to Forbes, baby boomers aged 65 to 73 made up the largest portion of home sellers in 2020. A study by Homes.com found that 23% of homeowners downsize once their children grow up and move on. For many gypsy nesters, their homes represent their largest financial asset—one they use to fund the years of travel they have ahead of them.

But other real estate industry statistics reveal that downsizing cuts across generations. That’s because the most common reason for downsizing is to save money—something people of all ages need to do at various times of their lives. And the decision works for most people who make it. Rent, utility, insurance, and tax savings are some of the benefits of downsizing. Over the past several decades, real estate prices have climbed steadily. In 2020 alone, they jumped 11%. Depending on how long you’ve owned your home, the amount of equity you’ve established might surprise you. Even if you take some of the profit you reaped by selling your home to buy another, your downsizing decision could go a long way toward paying your expenses as you travel the globe.

If you decide to downsize soon, you have another real estate market dynamic working in your favor. During the COVID-19 crisis, mortgage interest rates have plummeted, reaching record lows in the mid-2020s. They’re still below rates we’ve seen for a decade and economists predict that they’re likely to stay that way. That means the money you make from the sale of your large home will go farther when you make mortgage payments on your new, your smaller one. Shop around for the lowest mortgage rate you can find and crunch the numbers carefully to see how much you’ll stand to gain when you downsize.

You Have Options

Downsizing comes in many shapes and sizes. For some people, it can even look like upsizing. Swapping an expensive condo in the city for a rural ranch home with acreage is one way to downsize. And so might be trading a sprawling suburban home for a pied-à-terre in town that’s walking distance from restaurants and entertainment. Simply moving to a less expensive real estate market is another way to downsize. You can buy a six-bedroom home in Toledo, Ohio for less than half of what it would cost to buy a one-bedroom condo in Westchester County, New York. There are as many solutions to downsizing as there are empty nesters who want to pare down.

How Far Can Downsizing Take You?

We all choose our own ways to travel, of course. Some of us opt for top-notch accommodations and must try every Michelin-rated restaurant we come across. Others travel frugally—staying at hostels or cooking by a campfire. Travel experts estimate that the cost of traveling the world for an entire year typically runs between $15,000 and $25,000. Let’s say that after you downsize (in whatever way you choose), you walk away with $100,000 in your pocket. Depending on the travel choices you make, you could indulge your wanderlust for almost seven years. If you decide, like more and more people are doing nowadays, to live the life of a working, digital nomad, that travel budget will take you even further. And you’d still have somewhere to come home to.

How Far Can You Downsize?

That depends, in part, on how many of your possessions you’re willing to part with. As we’ve discussed, many gypsy nesters find letting go of their “stuff” one of the hardest parts of launching their new lifestyle. But if you’re willing to whittle it down to just the most practical plus a few precious items, you might be interested in the tiny house movement. This “living small” phenomenon began in Europe, but by the 1990s, also gained traction in the US. Today, you can purchase a ready-built tiny home for an average price of $45,000. Are you handy with power tools? You can save money by buying a tiny house DIY kit for around $20,000. You can even order one on Amazon. Tiny homes are tiny—they’re usually defined as having an area of less than 400 square feet. But they offer outsized financial benefits.

The Tiny House Society has done quite a bit of research into the advantages of tiny homeownership. It turns out that people who live in tiny houses are more financially secure than other Americans. Nearly 70% of tiny homeowners have no mortgage. Some 60% have no credit card debt whatsoever. And tiny homes are actually increasing in value at a higher rate than traditional homes, which may make them an even better investment than traditional homes.

Here’s another intriguing fact about tiny homes: many of them are portable! If seeing your kids and grandkids is one of the main reasons you’d want to take a break from the gypsy lifestyle, imagine being able to drive your home from one place to another at will. You can spend Christmas in your tiny home parked in your son’s backyard and Fourth of July at your daughter’s place. Many grown children find the notion of having their parents wander the world a little unsettling. Having mom or dad’s tiny home parked behind the garage could be reassuring to them and make the separation easier for them to abide emotionally.

Follow Your Dream and Your Instincts

One of the greatest gifts you get from gypsy nesting is freedom. Freedom to ditch the daily grind and make every day an adventure. The chance to choose where you want to wake up every morning and toggle between metropolitan and rural experiences. If you’ve been hesitating at the threshold between traditional, home-based life and a full-on gypsy experience, keep in mind that it’s not necessarily a binary decision. With a little bit of planning, you can have the best of both worlds. You cross through that doorway over and over again, in both directions. And the door won’t slam behind you.

Finding Opportunities In Crisis

We all hit a wall sometimes, and getting somebody else’s perspective is a good start to figuring out if there is a problem and whether you’re too close to the trees to see the forest…
CONTINUE READING >> 

As many of you readers already know, speaking with an expert is a great way to get clarity. It doesn’t matter the topic. If you need some clarity speaking to an expert will help you navigate the clutter of your mind and get better results quickly.

Often we get too caught up in the problem and can’t see a better solution when the reality is that there is nothing but better solutions if we only know where and how to look.

Every week I host a podcast dedicated to finding solutions to various problems I run into and that I think you, the reader, would be interested in.

The reality is that we all can use a little advice from time to time.

We all hit a wall sometimes, and getting somebody else’s perspective is a good start to figuring out if there is a problem and whether you’re too close to the trees to see the forest.

It doesn’t matter if you’re looking to talk to a vet online about a pet’s health issues or speaking with a fantastic business coach like Retha Nichole. Getting a perspective from a professional and not emotionally attached to the solution is a great way to view the problem better.

6 Ways To Resolve A Problem

The best advice is for you to follow these six tips to resolve a problem:

    1. Ask Yourself, Is This Really A Problem? Often we create the problem in our heads or make minor things into a significant issue. The idea of “mountains out of molehills” is accurate once we overanalyze the problem.
    2. Accept The Answer: It’s challenging to take a detached view as you assess things, but if you can get some outside perspective to let you know if you’re on track or off-base in your evaluation, the next step is to accept that the problem exists and set out a plan to move beyond it.
    3. Seek Help: The hard part is accepting an issue, but asking for help can be even more challenging. The reality is that once you know there’s an issue, you really should seek out to get professional help, whether it’s seeking professional coaching, a mentor, or a specialist that offers solutions to your unique problems.
    4. Break The Problem Down Into Small “Bites:” The concept here is “how do you eat a pizza?” One bite at a time. You can’t shove the whole pie into your mouth, so taking it one bite at a time is the best way to work through a problem.
    5. Use The Pomodoro Method Or The 80/20 Rule: The Pomodoro Method is a time management concept that stresses optimal performance is 80% output from 20% of our energy. For example, we’re more productive if we do a task for 20 minutes and take 5-minute break intervals.
      How to implement The Pomodoro Technique
      – Set a 20-minute timer and work with focus
      – Take a 5-minute break. Get up from your work, move around, anything unrelated to your job
      – Every four sets of the Pomodoro Technique, take a more extended break up to 15 or 20 minutes and repeat the process.
    6. Discover The Opportunities Hiding In The Problem: Every problem has a solution, even if it’s not directly related to the issue at hand. For example, losing a job is stressful but may also lead to a new career or entrepreneurial opportunities.

Post-Evaluate The Problem To Find HIdden Solutions

After you take a detached view of the problem and come up with a solution, ask yourself a) what did you learn about the problem and the solution, b) was something good the result, if not, why? c) was there anything you learned that had offered new opportunities?

The goal is to find a solution to your problem and examine it in such a way that will give you insights into future possibilities.

In business, you want to find opportunities from a crisis

involves four main tactics:

    • Care for your customers.
    • Meet the changing nature of your customer’s needs.
    • Engage your community regularly.
    • Find alternative ways to provide for your customers.

If you are dealing with a crisis, whether it’s in business or life, accept that you don’t have all the answers and seek out some professional guidance. You’ll get better insights and may even find some hidden opportunities that you weren’t aware existed.

Comfort Food and Family Therapy

It’s no secret we love food, and cooking up comfort food is a sure-fire way to crank up the joy-meter in the family…
CONTINUE READING >> 

Let’s face it. Life gets crazy and maintaining a happy (and sane) family can be a challenge sometimes. That’s why we started thinking about tried-and-true ways to bring families together, nurture marriages and calm the crazy a bit. It’s no secret we love food, and cooking up comfort food is a sure-fire way to crank up the joy-meter in the family.

Fascinating Facts About Food and Comfort

Interestingly, there is scientific proof that certain comfort foods really do promote and stimulate feelings of satisfaction, joy, and calm. These studies further show that there are reasons we reach for comfort food like potato chips instead of a chunk of broccoli. Apparently, grabbing a doughnut or plowing into a bowl of mac n’ cheese is a knee-jerk response to coping with feelings of isolation, depression, or negativity.

There are also specific types of foods that are known to decrease feelings of distress or discomfort. Foods high in sugar, carbohydrates as well as fatty snacks are shown to trigger uplifting feelings and jack up psychological and physical levels. That’s why we tend to haul out Ben & Jerry’s ice cream after a monstrously stressful day. The bad news is, these comfort foods wreak havoc on our family’s health. The good news is there are healthy alternatives that have similar mood-boosting effects as a candy bar. Well, we admit, sometimes nothing beats a Snicker’s bar (remember their 1980s slogan? Snickers satisfies you!). Nevertheless, healthy substitutions are the best option for the long-term wellbeing of your family.

Combating Family Stress with (Healthy) Comfort Foods

If we gobbled up a chocolate brownie every time our toddler throws a tantrum in aisle four of the grocery store or our teenage daughter’s biting sarcasm sets our teeth on edge we’d all be chained to our treadmills to fight the battle of the bulge. Managing emotional family outbursts or handling stress in a marriage can be hard. Thankfully, there are healthy food options that are proven to reduce stress (and your waistline). So, when those hectic moments happen (and you know they will happen!) you can make better choices. Here are a few tasty, healthy foods for you and your family that trigger feelings of calm and comfort in times of stress.

Dark Chocolate: Believe it or not, you can have your chocolate and eat it too! Studies show that dark chocolate with at least 70% of cacao has an energizing effect on endorphin levels. Sure, it’s not the same as a bag of M&M’s, but dark chocolate is an excellent compromise for its power to ease emotional unrest and offer remarkable health benefits.

Salmon: Put away the fatty French fries, and opt for healthy fatty fish! Salmon is loaded with omega 3 fatty acids which are proven mood boosters. Not only does salmon elevate emotions for you and your family, but this nutrient-rich fish is also a powerhouse when it comes to cell regeneration. This means eating salmon can improve hair growth as well as give your skin a youthful glow. Vibrant skin and reduced stress sound like a no-brainer comfort food to us!

Quinoa: As it turns out, quinoa is more than just a culinary trend that’s grown in popularity recently.  There are nutritional studies that show this super whole grain can actually lift our moods. In fact, quinoa contains a flavonoid that serves up an impressive antidepressant effect. So the next time you whip up a family dinner, consider adding a portion of quinoa for extra stress-reducing comfort food!

Talking Around the Table

Consult any therapy site or, if you’re lucky, a graduate of an online MFT program, and you will learn that communication is a fundamental factor for a harmonic, healthy family and marriage. One of the best ways to get family members to open up and start sharing their feelings is gathering around a table of deeply comforting food. The best therapy for any family is coming together to talk about what’s going on in everybody’s lives. What better way to coax conversation than over a tasty, tantalizing meal? We know that schedules get bonkers and time gets twisty, but establishing one or a few nights per week when the whole family can sit down over a delicious (and healthy) meal will encourage happy talk around the table…and happy talk leads to a happy family!

3 Habits to Help You Get Past Covid

We can’t just sit around waiting for things to get better. We have to be the change and have a renewed focus on good habits that we will need to get the gears of the world moving again… CONTINUE READING >> 

Thanks to the pandemic, billions of lives were put on hold while we collectively searched for ways to deal with the upheaval. Of course, this was not true for everyone. Food producers had to continue producing food. Clothing makers had to switch all their product lines to sweat pants and PJs. And people producing masks, hand-sanitizer, and toilet paper made more money than they ever thought possible. If you drive for a car service or are in the delivery business, you likely got more work hours than you knew how to use. It seems a little crass to say that life was good for this group. But it certainly wasn’t on hold by any means.

As for the rest of us (that still includes billions), a return to normalcy is still just out of reach. But we can’t just sit around waiting for things to get better. We have to be the change for which we are hoping. While waiting, we have picked up some new bad habits and all but forgot about the good habits we used to have. A renewed focus on good habits is what we will need to get the gears of the world moving again. Here are a few good habits that will help you put the COVID blues in the rear-view mirror:

Practice an Instrument

Do you remember the days when you used to care about music and the guitar gods of the 80s? Many teens were driven by the desire to learn to play the guitar and rock the house like their favorite guitar heroes. Now is the perfect time to grab one of those electric guitars that used to electrify your spirit and learn to play.

The beauty of playing the guitar is that it is very easy to transport. Put it in a case and sling it over your shoulder. You immediately gain cool points from, well, everybody. And whenever you have a few minutes of downtime, you can put in a little practice time. The other thing that is great about the guitar is that you don’t have to be particularly good at it before you can strum a few chords that sound impressive and feel satisfying. One thing that makes an electric guitar a nicer practice instrument than an acoustic is that you can plug in headphones and not disturb anyone as you play. The same is true for an electric piano. But you wouldn’t want to sling one of those across your back.

Getting Out of the House

Getting out of the house doesn’t seem like much of a habit, and maybe it wasn’t in the before times. But we have become so deathly afraid to get out of the house that it takes an act of congress to move us. And we all know that acts of congress don’t come easy. What we need is to learn how to form healthy habits. One of the keys is good time management. If you keep a calendar, you should put in a 30 minute block that simply says, “Get out of the house.” Once you schedule it, it becomes a priority.

If you have a dog, increase the time you spend walking her. Don’t just go check the mailbox. Take a stroll around the block. On a nice day, don’t drive to the store to pick up a few items. Walk. Find ways to get yourself up from that office chair and move. If you have fear of going outside (FOGO), it’s okay to take baby steps.

Acts of Kindness

You are a wonderful partner to your spouse and do special things for them all the time. But those acts of kindness might come fewer and further between than you think. During times of stress, it is more important than ever to communicate via tangible actions rather than words. Get in the habit of doing something special once a week. It could be flowers, a home cooked meal, a day when you do all the chores, or something completely out of the box. This type of habit will help both of you get out of the pandemic with your joy intact.

Good habits are easy to start but take commitment to fully develop. But if you do it right, post pandemic, you will be able to play an instrument, conquer the outdoors, and strengthen your relationship with the one you love the most.

CONTINUE READING >> 

 While some people tend to believe it’s impossible to avoid future problems, this can lead to a negative mindset. In fact, with some effort and a positive attitude, you have the power to change your life for the better. Doing so can significantly improve your future. Consider trying out these five things and thank yourself later.

Improve or Establish Credit

One of the best ways to improve your lifestyle now and later on is to strengthen/establish credit. For instance, this can make it easier for you down the line to buy a home, get a new cell phone at a lower price and qualify for exceptional credit card deals, among other things. If you don’t have any credit, you might want to look for loans for people with no credit history. Doing your research can help you understand that you have plenty of options for taking control of your credit.

Take Care of Mental Health

Not taking care of your mental health can lead to depression, anxiety, chronic stress, and numerous other issues. By staying on top of your mental health, you’re more likely to stay focused, keep emotions in check,  and avoid serious health issues such as stroke. You’ll be more capable of working at your job, maintaining healthy relationships, and having peace of mind. You can take care of your mental health by staying active, eating healthful meals and snacks each day, socializing regularly, doing activities you enjoy, taking breaks when you need to, and asking for help when necessary.

Diet and Exercise

Committing to dieting and exercising can be a considerable challenge. But it’s essential to consider the benefits. For example, you’ll gain more energy, a clearer mind, strength, and positivity. You’ll find the motivation required to achieve your goals and live a fuller life. Not to mention the fact that you’ll have a higher likelihood of avoiding some of the worst health problems, including diabetes, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, and others. One trick for motivating yourself to get up and exercise is to do a workout routine you enjoy. And if you don’t want to do it, try something else. Other than this, you make dieting easier by slowly adding fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs to meals.

Practice Spirituality

Being more spiritual has several benefits, including a stronger immune system, lower risk of disease, and increased self-confidence. Also, you might gain depth, empathy, meaning, and purpose. If you have an addiction such as drug or alcohol abuse, spirituality might change your life. Meditation and yoga are two spiritual techniques you can do every day to improve your health and well-being. You can also build your spiritual connection through angel numbers. These are number pattern that can be seen anywhere that gives spiritual meaning.

Gain New Knowledge

Getting smarter can be beneficial for enhancing problem-solving abilities, achieving goals, and gaining self-confidence. You can make learning fun by taking a class, learning a new hobby, playing Chess with a friend, or reading a book. According to research, interactive video games have the potential to enhance decision-making abilities. Ambition, persistence, luck, and opportunity can increase your chances of being successful.

Finally, you can start preparing for a better future by taking things one step at a time. For one, keeping your thoughts and goals in order is easier by writing them down in a daily journal. Besides this, commit to positive thinking, and you’ll have more chances for success. Always remember how much your life matters because you deserve it.
