How to use your free time to refresh your mind





"Life is all about balance. You don't always need to be getting stuff done. Sometimes it's perfectly okay, and absolutely necessary, to shut down, kickback, and do nothing." Lori Deschene




It can sometimes feel that we have a lot on our plate and we must get everything done. Yes, the things we do in our daily lives are important.  Especially our role as parents, but what is also important is not getting burnt out and mentally fatigued.  Therefore, it is imperative that we make free time a priority in order to keep our sanity and live happier and more fulfilled lives. Here are some ways we can use our free time.








1.Enjoy Nature




Enjoy natures gifts by going to the beach, go hiking, snorkeling, sight seeing whatever there is to do in your area that will help you simply enjoy mother Earth's beauty and help relax your mind.






2. Do a project




Why not do that little project you wanted to do for a long time, like making a flower garden, learning to crochet, writing an e book, trying out that new recipe you saw on Pinterest, there are so much more you can delve into.
 Learning new things changes your perspective on life and sometimes that is just what you need to look at and change how you do things.





3. Do absolutely Nothing




If we seat back and let our minds wonder, we will be amazed by the big creative ideas that we will come up with. Sometimes when we just let go, we create effective systems that make our lives more convenient.




4.Volunteerism/ Community service




Being of service to others can be a very rewarding experience and sometimes if we take the time off to help someone in need, we will be more appreciative of our own blessings and realize how insignificant our complaints can be.




5.Sleep




As individual, we tend to have so much to do in limited time, that the only thing we can sacrifice is sleep. While I believe that the healthier option is to maintain a consistent sleeping routine that will help your body rejuvenate it self,  sometimes that simple act just do not happen, so use this time to catch up on well needed sleep.




6.Get inspired


Pray, meditate, read self development books or even listen to some TED Talks. Opening our minds to different teachings can only help us grow in to better human beings.




How do you use your free time let me know in the comments.

Five ways to find time for dating partner with a busy schedule 









Having a hectic schedule makes it difficult to maintain any type of meaningful relationship. As mothers, it is especially important that we take the responsibility to ensure that our relationship is well nourished.


We often say we do not have the time to do things that will help our relationship grow and flourish, because of the kids and whatever else that is taking our time. Here are a few creative ways you can use to help find the time to make having dates possible.

  1.   Wake up earlier
Wake up before the kids and take the opportunity to enjoy a  nicely prepared breakfast while enjoying the beautiful sunrise and set the mood for a wonderful day.
   

   2.   Work out together

Find a time every day when you can release your stress and push each other to the limit while breaking a hot sweat .




  3. Utilize your Lunch break


If you work in the same area as your partner use your lunch break to reconnect and bond with  each other.




4. Use car time



We spend a lot of time commuting utilize that time !!









5. Before Bed



Ensure your kids have a bed time routine and make it your routine to make a date with your partner right after.





Let me know how you make time to have date nights by commenting.
