When is the last time you had a break? If you are like me, it’s been a long time. Whether you are a stay-at-home mom or a working mom, we all struggle with finding time for ourselves. Over the years, I have lost myself in the mom hustle. Moms are superhuman! We manage everything within our household. Sounds easy, right? The never-ending lists: likes/dislikes, homework, chores, lunches, appointments, laundry, etc. These lists could go on forever. The problem is that everything on these lists is for the kids and the hubby. Where are we on the lists that we make every week?
I wasn’t on my OWN list.
I didn’t do anything for me. I don’t even know when I realized I was always doing for everyone else and never taking care of myself. My health was absolutely crap, and I could feel the stress in my body. I knew something had to change, and I didn’t know where to start with my own self-care. I was always hyper-focused on making everyone else happy, but my happiness didn’t matter. This was the hamster wheel of my life since becoming a mom. I couldn’t find a balance between my family’s happiness and my own.
Does this sound like you?
It was hard to start doing things for me. The mom guilt never stops. I felt guilty all the time. I still feel guilty. I wanted to break the cycle and journal my progress to find a little bit of happiness for myself. I created this journal for the moms that struggle with finding time for self-care. The journal helped me on my journey to find the Melissa that I lost. It’s hard even typing these words, because I feel like a bad mom for saying I need to do things for myself. It’s craziness! We do deserve to take care of ourselves too. We can do BOTH. I decided to give myself 90 days to find the things that I liked to do and didn’t do anymore. I wanted to devote the same energy I gave to everyone else and pour that into myself as well.
If any of this sounds like you, this journal will help you practice self-care and (attempt) to feel less guilty while doing it.
