As caregivers we donāt always perceive how much energy we give out on a daily basis. Itās a privilege to be able to look after our young, and bring Life into this world, however, replenishing our energy is so important! It might seem impossible to have time to yourself as a mom or caretaker, so Iāve decided to utilize the shower, because itās typically something we do alone. A few minutes can make a huge impact on our longevity.
Before I was a mommy, I was A Nanny, and it was my job weekly to look after the children of others and I would burn out constantly! Sometimes on an hourly basis! During those years, I learned to take some time for myself!
Below is a practical technique that can help you with regulating your energy on overwhelming days āš½šāØ
