Frankly I’m Exhausted 🥱

I needed yesterday to be about light errands, and relaxing in bed. That’s exactly what I did too 😩

... Read moreFeeling exhausted is something we all experience, especially during busy seasons like Vlogmas. Taking time to recharge is essential for mental health and well-being. Here are some effective strategies you can implement: 1. **Light Errands**: Keep your tasks light and manageable to avoid overwhelming yourself. This allows you to feel productive without excessive stress. 2. **Rest and Relaxation**: Prioritize time for yourself. Whether it’s taking a short nap or simply lounging in bed with a good book or your favorite show, downtime is crucial. 3. **Mindfulness Practices**: Incorporate mindfulness or meditation into your routine. Even a few minutes of deep breathing can help reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. 4. **Stay Connected**: Check in with friends and loved ones. Engaging with your support system can lift your spirits and remind you you're not alone in your feelings. 5. **Plan for Fun**: Don’t forget to schedule enjoyable activities, even during busy times. Engaging in hobbies you love or simply enjoying some festive vibes can rejuvenate your mind and body. As the holiday season approaches, remember that it's okay to take a step back and focus on self-care. You're not alone in feeling this way, and prioritizing your mental health will set you up for a happier new year!

dear exhausted mama,
You’re not behind, you’re just tired. You’ve stopped resting, you’ve replaced resting with striving. You feel like you have to earn rest. You’ve focused so much on your morning routine, or nighttime routine that they no longer feel life giving. They feel like rules to follow to be “on trend.” T
