Finding time for you.

Me Time is something I think most of us mums are lacking as we simply forget ABOUT US. When we do plan on doing something for ourselves, We soon forget about it, as something more important happens, everyone in your little world comes first and YOU are soon forgotten about. 

2 weeks ago is when I wanted to write this blog but couldn’t find the time. I was at home with both my babies as their carer was off due to an injury ( my kids are in-home day-care) With markets coming up I was busy sewing trying to build my stock up, organize for the market, build my website, keep my children fed and trying to keep them amused and happy while I was trying to get this all done. IT WAS A HARD WEEK. As much as it was a hard week, This is the reason why I have chosen to work from home and run my own business. Not Everything is meant to be easy. 

THAT WEEK WAS THE WEEK!!!!!!  I made the call to Bodyfit and flex Pilates Studio, spoke to Kymmie, Booked my first Yoga class, and made it happen. First-class was amazing! Come out feeling refreshed and relaxed and was ready to start my day. I was floating on a cloud for a few days after and decided to book in a few more sessions of different classes to try. FAST FORWARD, 3 weeks in, and I’ve been going 3 to 4 times a week and LOVING it. 

It took me such a long time to allow myself to give myself a break and feel like it was OK to give myself some time. I felt like I always needed to ask permission to have my time, ( Which wasn’t the case at all) Looking after the kids just becomes the norm and you almost feel guilty when you did want to take some time out.

All I can say is that if you're feeling the same way as I was feeling, wanting to do something, but feel like you don’t have the time or keep forgetting about you, MAKE TIME FOR YOU, I have started getting up at 5.30 am to be able to do a class before my husband goes to work or I do one after he gets home in the evening. I have even booked in a Saturday Class, just because I can!

I Always said, “I don’t have time”,” I can't make time and kept making excuses”

NOT NOW.

Taking care of myself is not being selfish. It is essential that I LOVE myself first before I have the strength and energy to give LOVE to my family. 

Take Time for YOU,
