Moms are extremely busy these days. They are juggling family, home, work, and money. But in all there busyness they must take time to maintain their overall health. This includes mind, body, and spirit. Below are 3 of the best healthy ideas for moms…
1) Drink Your Water & Eat Healthy – It is very important to hydrate your body throughout the day. Women who drive at least 64 oz. of water daily have more energy. Also, make sure to eat a healthy breakfast and lunch. Plan nutritious snacks during the day to curb hunger.
2) Exercise – Set some time each day to exercise. This can be as simple as stretching or going for a walk in your neighborhood. Exercising will also increase your energy level.
3) Plan Some “ME” Time - It is easier said than done to plan some “ME” time into your day. However, the rewards are great. It is easier to take care of others when we first take care of ourselves. Write in a journal or read a chapter in a book are a couple examples of “ME” time. If you need to wake up 15 minutes before everyone in the house then do that but, make yourself a priority. You may even want to take a bubble bath from time to time.
By eating nutritious food, drinking plenty of water, exercising, and taking time for yourself each and every day you will become a healthier mom. You will also have more energy to take care of the other people in your life.
