We all need to … Relax!
Special gift for mom’s this week….but Shhhh, it applies to us all!
Our gift to mom’s this week – give yourself a break and enjoy some relaxation, we know you deserve it. All week long you’ve got meetings to attend, and a looming work project that’s going to keep you up well past when everyone else goes to bed. You’ve got kids to get to sports and music lessons, and somewhere in there you are trying to get in your workout and make healthy meals for everyone. To say you’re stressed would be an understatement.
Too many of us get caught up in the Flight or Fight response mode and never remember to take time out for relaxation. When was the last time you stopped and simply enjoyed being out in nature? Took a long hot bubble bath, or lost yourself in a really good book?
On the flip side, how many have gone out of the way to get out and move...not simply out in nature, but really doing something that requires you to focus with all of your physical being? A 5K for some, a marathon for others, it can be anything completely physical which allows your body and mind to shift focus from getting out of your head and into your body.
Give yourself a chance, take a moment, find a grassy patch or some sand, walk outside with bare-feet and breathe. Make a commitment to yourself to do this at least once this week. Have your calendar out? If you are like us two busy moms, you are going to have to schedule you relaxation time. And you know what – that is okay, and we recommend it!
Learning to let go and relax is not something most of us are taught, well, not unless you have some very open-minded parents (and are growing up in Stacia’s house). Many of us use ‘bad’ ways to de-stress: drinking, smoking, eating, and anything else we can think of to do in excess to punish our bodies rather than nourish them.
Have you ever felt like your body just isn’t working the way it used to? No matter what you try — the workouts, the diets, the lifestyle tweaks — nothing seems to budge? Your energy is low, your mood is all over the place, and the weight just won’t come off? If that sounds familiar,
