Okay, let's start this off by talking about how we can use our free time...Yep, I
went there, but please let's have an open mind, I know some of these things can
be impossible when being a mother or even a wife. But have some faith, so let's
that impossible to I'm Possible. Ah, did you just see what I just did? Firstly, let me
say I did google to see what google had to say about how mom can use her free
time. I tell you such a comical reality we are in. This is what google had to say lol.
Do a bit of home organization and Pay bills...umm, who created this man?
Moving forward let me share some tips on what you can do in your free time.
Learning something new
I am sure there is something that you always wanted to do but do not have the time for it.
This is something I do is write down a list of things I want to learn. Rather if it is DIY, Crafts, or
even catching up with friends and family. I know learning new things can be scary because you
may not have the confidence to do so. But remember you can turn that impossible to
I'M POSSIBLE.
Exercise
Exercising can be fun and a stress reliever. You will most definitely want to take control of your
health. You have little one depending on you until they grow up to care for themselves. Look,
we will always be mama and be there for our kiddos...mama job does not stop...like ever.
This is a long term gig. Also, exercising increases alertness and energy. Now you know us
mothers need to stay alert and full of energy. when caring for our family. I know a lot is on your
shoulders so differently exercise and release what needs to be lifted off of your shoulders.
Reeeeead
I know there has to be a book or two you are dying to read and if not you can always
find online what book is trending. Later on throughout the blog posts I will share books you
may be interested in. I will also share a gem where you can find basically any book you desire
for free. Look out for more details on that.
Journal
When I tell you journaling is the best way to use your free time, this is the time for you to really
self express yourself. Self expression is so important! In my opinion this is a good time to have
one on one with self or even with your creator. This is a time to reflect so you are not
projecting negative energy and even having negative thoughts. This can play into our lives
when caring for our family.
Reflect on your accomplishments
It is always to reflect on your accomplishments and also add how grateful you are. Chin up
smile and breathe. One thing that I do is take a look at my life and smile that you have gotten
so far even when wanting to give up. I do my best to focus more so on the positive and if I do
feel negative and have that negative energy. I have a plan when on the battlefield to defeat
any negativity. I will also share my techniques on how I get through the motions. Reflection on
your accomplishments should give you a boost of confidence that you got this...yes, sister you
GOT THIS. You are not alone, we are here on the same battlefield.
Recharge your Brain
I know that we have a ton of work to do and you must get to it. Okay, look we always have to
get to something. How about resting even if it is for 15 minutes. Stop all things and take a
moment to rest your brain. I swear if you are doing way too much you will become forgetful
and your body will shut down on you. This is where frustration comes knocking at the door
and it can be invited in without your permission if you do not give yourself time to wooosa.
Hobbies
Do you have a hobby? If so, focus on that and try to get back into it. Allowing
Focusing on your hobbies will make you feel renewed. My hobby is playing
Sims 4 and I really do enjoy it. I just have to make sure I do not get lost in the
game because time will pass me by. So go back to the hobby you enjoyed before
you became extremely busy. Now for the ones that do not have a hobby no
worries you can find one. It's not hard to find hobbies you may be interested in...
Here is a list just for you.
Hiking.
Painting.
Sculpture.
Writing.
Running.
Dancing.
Yoga.
Set Goals
Setting goals is always great to do. I swear I am always setting goals, especially
small goals. Setting small goals makes me feel accomplished and stay on track
of the things that are important on a day to day basis.
I hope the information that was given to you was helpful and that you now have
an idea how to spend your time. Thank you so much for reading
Me Time Me, two sense.
