When Your Life as a Mom Needs to Reboot.

• Stop. Have a quiet time with God. Tell Him how you feel. Print off devotions that focus on the areas you feel stressed. Write down Scripture that lets you see the bigger picture.


• Make lists. Lots of lists. Dump your brain onto paper. Clutter can be just as hazardous in your head, as in your house.


• Buy in bulk. Less trips to the store. More time with family.

• Meal Plan. Helps you to be fully there with your family, instead of fretting about dinner time.


• Get kids to help with chores. They are following you around all day anyways, might as well put them to work. Make chore charts.


• Quit for a season. Recycling. Playdates. Blogging. Volunteering. Cooking from Scratch. Anything that takes away your focus from getting back on track.


• Be a mom to yourself. Nag. Sometimes it's the only way you'll listen to you. "Go to bed early! Or I will ground you from LOST!"


• Exercise. Hello, Yoga.


• Have an accountability partner. Dear ____, Today during nap time I did devotions, drank 4 sexy glasses of water, and did yoga. You would have been extra proud of my warrior stance. It was extra warriorry. Love, _____


• Accept help. Super hard. But worth it.
