8 Simple Ways to Destress for Busy Moms

By Erika in Caring for Yourself

SponsoredI was compensated for this post. All opinions are my own.

For all you busy moms out there, here's 8 simple ways to destress and take care of yourself. Not a spa visit - these are easy ideas you can do right at home. this idea now...

Do you ever feel like no matter what you do, it’s not enough?

Life is crazy, especially when you have kids. Even more when you’re jumping into the back-to-school routine. While it’s a welcome relief for some of us, for others it means early mornings and non-stop to do lists. Whether you’re running on no sleep with a colicky newborn or playing soccer mom and transporting kids from one place to another, it’s easy to let the stress build up.

How many of us don’t feel like we’re doing a good job? The demands in life are high and juggling everything can easily become overwhelming.

It’s essential to take time for yourself and learn ways to destress. Believe me, it will be worth it.

I just learned I have multiple food sensitivities and leaky gut syndrome, most likely due to chronic stress. Even though I’ve learned better stress-coping strategies over the past couple years, I am still paying for years of not taking care of myself.

Dear fellow mom, don’t let yourself get to this point. Take care of yourself please. Now.

We all need ways to relax. And that doesn’t mean you have to go to the spa. (Sure a spa would be fabulous, but for most of us, it just isn’t gonna happen.)  Instead, here’s a few simple inexpensive ways to destress that you can actually do!

For all you busy moms out there, here's 8 simple ways to destress and take care of yourself. Not a spa visit - these are easy ideas you can do right at home.

8 Simple Ways to Destress for Busy Moms:

1. Think About What’s Important

Just stop. Look around at the mountain of laundry or floors that need to be vacuumed. Or maybe your whole messy house. Then look at your children. Your sweet children who may drive you a bit insane, but you love so much. Fast forward 20 years. What will matter more? Folded laundry and a clean, organized house? Or memories of crazy fun times with your kids? What do you think THEY’ll remember more?

2. Take 5 minutes and breath deeply.

Lock yourself in the bathroom or hide in the closet if you have to. Close your eyes and slowly breathe in for 5 counts. Then slowly breathe out 5 counts. Do this 5 times. It helps!

3. Put your favorite music on.

Music always makes things more fun. Whether you’re listening to fun pop tunes as you do chores or soothing peaceful music when you’re relaxing, music is great.

4. Do something with someone.

Even if you’re generally anti-social and prefer to hole up at home (I’d rather hibernate than see someone mid-winter), you need to get out and see people. If you work outside of the home, it’s still a good idea to socialize with friend and/or family outside of your work environment.

For all you busy moms out there, here's 8 simple ways to destress and take care of yourself. Not a spa visit - these are easy ideas you can do right at home.

Set up a time to go to a local coffee shop and chat for an hour with your best friend/sister/mom/ or even an acquaintance you’ve been wanting to get to know better. It doesn’t have to be long or expensive but that little interaction can make a big difference in your mood.

Even though I’m an introvert and need my alone time, I always feel better after getting together with someone I know.

5. Enjoy a special treat that’s just for you.

I look forward to my green tea latte every afternoon. It gives me an energy boost, and I find it relaxing. I do the same with a small piece of dark chocolate later every afternoon. These two little things are small and guilt-free, yet they’re a mini destresser for me.

What’s your favorite special treat?

Looking for a non-food related treat to enjoy? Try a DIY lavender bath bomb in an evening bath for a peaceful, relaxing soak.

6. Laugh!

Find something to laugh about. Go join the kids – they’re sure to make you laugh one way or another! Or pick out a comedy to watch one evening. It’s true that laughter is good medicine.

7. Get some fresh air

Fall is a beautiful time of year. The summer heat is beginning to subside (okay, maybe not for you southerners, sorry!) and it’s gorgeous out. Soak up some sunshine or walk around the yard. Even a few minutes can help you step away from the craziness of life and reconnect with nature and yourself. Even if it’s in the dead of winter, a few minutes of cold air can rejuvenate you. (At the very least, it will wake you up!)

8. Think about the positive.

This is one of my favorite ways to destress because it brings a little perspective. When you look at everything that’s gone wrong in a day, it’s easy to be hard on yourself and feel like you’re not doing a good job. If you start thinking like that, stop yourself in your tracks! Instead, try to think about everything good that did happen! Even on tough days, you can always find a little bit of sunshine if you look hard enough.

      Children crave limits, which help them understand and manage an often confusing world. A good parent sets boundaries so their kids can explore and discover their passions safely.

      I know of a mom, whom turns off the technology and goes for a walk with her children and they talk freely /personal conversations about their day, their dreams. They also have a dog and he joins them on the walk. Teaches pet responsibility as well as togetherness.

      I’m know I’m doing good when my boys want to snuggle with my in the morning, tell me they love me, ask for hugs, and ask my husband and I to play with them. My oldest tells me all the time I am his friend which makes me happy. Whenever I start to feel like I’m not doing a good job raising them I remember they don’t need stuff but they need me and they still ask for me all the time. 🙂

      Another parent you know is doin’ good is my brother. He ALWAYS takes time for his kids and is never too proud to show them love and affection. He plays with them, disciplines them when needed, but always makes sure they know how much he loves them and is proud of them! He’s an amazing father!

      I think both me and my husband are doing good because we are raising a boy that goes to church and helps in the community and respects others and there feeling. We feel that you have to help out were you can and be good people.

My daughter has made straight A’s and E’s since pre-school and she is now in 7th grade. She just joined the National Jr. Beta Club and the National Jr. Honor Society. She is the top student in her school and I know it isn’t 100% because of me but I know if I wasn’t the parent I was she would not be where she is right now. I am very proud of her and I love her very much!

      I know that good parenting trickles down through the generations.. We went to pick my grandson up at college today and I got in the back seat to let him sat up front he came out of the dorm and motioned for me to get back up front because he said he would have felt disrespectful to let me sit in the back seat!

      Wednesday in the grocery store a little girl around five years old was pulling her mother’s leg, wanting her to buy bubble gum. I watched and listened as the mother explained that the child had made a choice to buy potato chips and one treat was the rule. The child asked if she could change her mind and have bubble gum instead and the mother calmly said “no, but next week you can choose bubble gum” and the child smiled with delight. Love that this mom taught her child that 1) we stand by our choices, and 2) delayed gratification by making her wait a week for the bubble gum.

My civil engineering class! It’s my first class of the day, every other day!”. Woo hoo…I love that I raised a girl who is so enthusiastic about her classes and who is set on being an architect!

      We picked our youngest son up after his first few weeks at college Friday. First thing he said was “Thanks for all you all have done all of my life to get me here and help me do so well”. We must have done something right to raise that young man!

      I work for a Jewish Day School and everyday I am blown away by the good that is done. It is such an honor to be able to instill good values into the youth that attend. One particular case I can think of is one parent raising their child to pick up litter, waterbottles after sports/gym, and the child always volunteers whenever he can.

      I watch my nephew with pride often… My sister has done an amazing job raising a compassionate, caring and kind little boy. She rarely punishes him, but uses positive reinforcement all the time– to the point where he just wants to be GOOD. He’s the one on the playground who includes the children standing off to the side, or helps a playmate up when he/she falls down. It is such a lovely sight to witness the development of a young man who will undoubtedly be a helper to his fellow man during his lifetime. I am so proud to be his auntie, and delight in showering him with love and attention. And dinosaur books. <3
