Yoga Mom

Today I will give a little insight on being a mom and doing yoga exercise.

I am a mom of a 10 month old daughter. When I first became a mom I thought this isn’t hard, I can exercise when I want to. I have come to find that being a mom and doing yoga is hard. So if you are a mom and do yoga cherish all the time you get for this wonderful relaxing exercise.

Why yoga is so hard to do as a mom.

I will give you a little insight into mom hood. This section is called the day in the life of a yoga mom.

The first thing I do is get up and feed my daughter breast milk which will take up to an hour sometimes. Then you put her down to play and try and eat breakfast. You warm up your cereal and then comes the waaaaa. Oh no she needs attention. What is it now a diaper change, some more milk, solid food, a hug, or some attention. Okay you figure out what the demand is,take care of the problem. Now I can go back to my cereal. So now you decide you have to do her laundry before you run out of bibs for her meals. By the time that is done you should go get dressed. Here comes the cry again. Oh she must be hungry now. So you feed her solid food and put her down. Okay now I can go take a shower. This is the most peaceful part of the day ALONE TIME. You step out of the shower and hear waaaa oh now time to nurse again for another hour. Okay now that this is over it is time to clean all the breakfast dishes. Start to clean dishes and hear waaaa oh she needs her diaper changed. You change her diaper then put her down to play again. No I don’t want to sit here. Hm mm what could it be oh I know put her on the floor in the kitchen to play with plastic containers while I do the dishes. She loves that as long as I play with her at the same time. Now the dishes are done. Okay maybe now I can do some yoga. You set her down and guess what hungry again. So you feed her solid food. Okay now you put her down to play and she does. Oh good I can do some yoga now. Hurry up get dressed and ready for it. Now you start the exercise. Halfway through it you hear waaaa. Oh no she needs to be nursed again. So now you nurse her. Look at the time after you nursed her oh now it is time for making dinner. In the end the yoga never gets finished.

I love yoga because it takes away all the pain of lifting and bending as a mom. The back exercise is the best.

For new moms there is mom and baby yoga. This is great for you and your baby. The classes are good for you and your baby until you run out of time to go to it. Or the baby starts to yell and move a lot in the class. Usually this is when it is hard to control the baby so yoga class is not worth it for you anymore.

Every city should have a baby and mama yoga class. Benefits of baby mama yoga are: The baby gets to do the class with you,

You get to lose weight and feel good.

Other attributes are meeting other mothers and seeing all the funny things that go on in the class.

Being a mom takes a lot of time so if you don’t get a chance to do yoga, nurse your baby. You will be exercising by feeding and lose weight. In ending, Sometimes you do get time to do the yoga so never give up. Just a shout out to all yoga teachers who are also moms, kudos to you. What a hard and rewarding job you have.

My Hope

I am a mom of two lovely children and I always try to do my best to be a good mom for them. I have to manage my time and energy well because I have to spend my time and my love for my husband and my job too. Thank God I work online at home which allow me to freely manage my schedule.

Yesterday my friend came to my home and she cried. She said that she just found out that his son is addicted to drug. She couldn’t believe it and she denied it. I really understand how she feels about it. I talked to her and I told her to take her son to the best drug rehab center.

I told her that she has to move fast and find the right drug treatment for him. She cried all the time and thank God she listened to me. I took her to browse the internet to get the best alcohol rehab for her son. He is just thirteen years old and I couldn’t believe it either. Finally, we found the alcohol treatment and we discussed about this alcohol treatment center. We thought that this is the perfect place for him to get the drug treatment because he will get the best doctors and best treatment for his addiction. I hope everything will be just fine and he can get his normal life back.

Most work from home moms can tell you that their work seems to never be done and many times their health and beauty will get neglected. Grabbing a sandwich while running out the door to go to the grocery with no make up on and looking stressed and flustered… If you are one of the many work from home moms these days, you may be familiar with this scenario. It is a general occurrence with many moms that opt to work from home while continuing to take care of the house, husband and kids. If this sounds like a common day in your busy life, take a minute to rest while you read the health and beauty tips below to help keep you running properly.

Eat Healthy To Stay Strong

Women that work from home are naturally strong and having kids simply increases the mental strength and endurance. However, skipping meals and being on the go continually will lower your fortitude and could cause a slow decline in your health. Nutritious meals will help you remain in good health; keeping your mental attitude up, as well as your resilience level. If you keep a couple of those meal bars handy, like in your desk or purse, they will be perfect for anytime that you feel like you do not have enough time to eat. Buy some bagged salad mix for a quick lunch and try to keep washed veggies in the refrigerator for snacks, also. Crock pot dinners are wonderful for the busy work from home moms to lessen the amount of time spent on fixing evening meals.

Find Quick Beauty on the Go

Finding quick beauty simply means that you can do small things to enhance your beauty. This is important especially since you are one of the busy work from home moms trying to do everything. Always dab on some lipstick with sunscreen protection for two beneficial reasons. First by adding some color to your lips, it gives the impression that you have taken the time to put make up on, even if it is the only thing you wear on your face. Second reason to be sure to use the lipstick with sunscreen is for those unplanned meetings that you may have to run out for or even spur-of-the-moment trips with the kids to the playground. Your lips will be protected beautifully.

Wind Down With a Spa Treatment

After the children are tucked into bed and before you retire for the evening, refresh yourself with a bit of a spa treatment. Long, hot bubble baths are excellent for relaxation and you can use your favorite facial mask while you soak. You can also file and paint your nails while you are bathing in the warm bath. Use a good conditioner along with your shampoo in order to make your hair easier to comb and it will also add shine and luster to your hair. Apply a good vitamin enriched lotion all over your body when your bath is done and use a night cream, if you like, on your face.

See Your Doctor Regularly

Visiting the doctor on a regular basis is very important to the health of the busy work from home moms and it should not be neglected. With so much on your plate with family and work, your stress level can run you down and cause fatigue. Discuss any aches and pains that you may be experiencing with your doctor. Even if you feel physically fine, annual check-ups are important, in order to maintain your health and beauty.

Changing a few habits and starting a couple of new rituals will help busy work from home moms retain their good health and beauty.
