Stressed!

Author icon Published date icon 12/16/15

Sometimes it seems that my day can get derailed before my alarm clock even has the chance to ring. It's easy to try and "help" yourself by cutting corners on your health and well being when it feels like the wheels are coming off. The best thing you can do (for you and those you love) when you are stressed/exhausted is to take some time to care for yourself!

Ever have one of those weeks? I'm having one for sure! So far, we've had: a fractured clavicle (4 year old), an all nighter stomach cramp extravaganza from food allergy of unknown origin (10 yr old), being room mom for a Christmas party at school (tomorrow), snack day for 33 kindergarteners (which I forgot about until 10 minutes before school), and a snow day with the kids while my husband was weather delayed for 2 extra days in Nevada. Oh, and this is my second time writing the blog because my first draft vaporized into the cyber mist!

Sometimes it seems that my day can get derailed before my alarm clock even has the chance to ring. It's easy to try and "help" yourself by cutting corners on your health and well being when it feels like the wheels are coming off, so I'm writing this today to remind myself, as well as anyone else who might struggle with this, that: The best thing you can do (for you and those you love) when you are stressed/exhausted is to take some time to care for yourself!

So what am I going to do?

  • Take my supplements!
  • Drink a fruit and veggie smoothie
  • Take a nap and catch up on some sleep
  • Let go of anything not absolutely necessary and put that off for later
  • Be honest with those around me about my limits and not try to be superwoman!
  • Dream of better days ahead (hence the photo for today's blog)

Hope this helps someone today, I sure needed the reminder!

Libby Wright, mother of four who homeschools, is an original founder of SupplementRelief.com in 2010. She suffered through challenging diseases including Interstitial Cystitis, Graves and Lyme. After years of little progress with traditional medicine, she pursued integrative medicine, applied what she learned, and got healthier. She became passionate about wanting others to experience the same "relief" she had come to know, and SupplementRelief.com was born. She is now managing her illness with a lot of prayer, a lot of nutrition/supplements, and a little prescription medicine. She has been able to resume her normal life and, while there is no cure for her particular conditions, she is able to cope, enjoy every day, and encourage others.
