Treat Yourself! A list of ideas when you need a little indulgence
From St. Louis Maternity & Newborn Photographer, Amber Sargent
In the beautiful chaos of motherhood, it's easy for moms to forget the importance of self-care. Juggling countless responsibilities, from diaper changes to meal preparations, leaves little time for the superhero behind it all – Mom herself. Today, we're here to gently nudge all the incredible moms (YOU) out there to take a moment, breathe, and indulge in the art of self-love. So, grab your favorite cup of tea, find a cozy corner, and let's explore why treating yourself is not just a luxury but a necessity on this incredible journey called motherhood.
Kindle: Run a hot bath, alone, light candles, and get your read on!
Audible Membership or Audiobooks: For those who prefer to listen to their books
Airpod Pros: For the gym or for listening to your audiobooks in privacy
Robot Vacuum: An amazing addition to you life, especially if you have pets!
Candles: An obvious choice, but one can never have too many amazing smelling candles.
Luxurious Bed Sheets: Because a good night’s rest makes all the difference in the world
Dark Chocolate or Milk Chocolate: I personally prefer dark chocolate, and LOVE awake brand chocolate with a little caffeine boost for the afternoons!
Shower Steamers: For an extra relaxing aromatherapy shower.
Weighted Blanket or Heated Blanket: To be oh so extra cozy!
Hatch Restore Alarm Clock: Wake up peacefully!
Bamboo PJ’s: If your kids can have them, so can you.
New Kicks: Enjoy some new tennis shoes that aren’t worn down and won’t hurt your feet.
Electric Kettle: To make some hot, relaxing
Tea: treat yourself to some relaxing de-stress tea just for mom.
Flavored Coffee: Get some specialty coffee you wouldn’t normally buy yourself.
An Affirmation Journal: Mental health is so important and you deserve to feel beautiful and worthy.
Motherhood is a marathon, not a sprint, and just like any endurance race, it requires periodic moments of replenishment. In the constant hustle of caring for others, it's easy to lose sight of the woman who holds it all together.
As Tom and Donna (Parks and Rec) would say, “Treat yo self!” YOU DESERVE IT!
