Hey Ladies! How are you feeling? Have you given yourself a hug today? That could be physically or emotionally…really! A lot of people have been speaking about “self care” lately, and I wasn’t really sure for a while what that really meant for me personally. We all work so hard, for so many hours, and then come home + make dinner + help with homework + blog a little bit + maybe squeeze in an episode or two of something on Netflix.
It is really hard for mamas (especially single moms) to make time for ourselves, just for ourselves. We matter and we have to find a way to carve out that time daily.
For me, self care is finding a routine and trying to stick to it. For instance, I work out at 5am in the morning, using the mirror and it’s everything. It’s super important for me to get that in and if I miss it for a day or a few days, I just make an effort to get back into the grove of working out again. Fitness is my self care and also making time to just relax for at least an hour a day. Find a way to unwind from the day.
Working out gives me so much energy. I feel more confident, my clothes fit better and I feel like I can tackle the world after a really good workout. One hour of working out really gets all my stress out and I can focus on myself. When I don’t get my workouts in, I just feel off balance. Self care is so freaking important. If you want to try it out for yourself or your already on your own fitness journey, I put together some of my favorite things for the summer. These are seriously my must haves for summer right now!
