Do you ever find yourself so frustrated and overwhelmed that you can’t go on with the rest of your day?
I’ve been there too.
I feel like I have no energy. I have no motivation to get things done. My head hurts, my brain feels like it’s in a fog, and my body just won’t cooperate.
Samesies.
I realized that when I’m in this rut, I usually haven’t done something for me. Something to give me energy to do the things I want to do. As moms, we live our lives providing for others. Nurturing our children and finding things for our spouses. In the end, we’re left depleted.
Do you get what I’m saying?
We have to fill our cup so we can fill others.

You’re doing the best you can, Mama. Remember to take care of you.
That is so true. I tend to forget about self-care because of my energetic toddler.
Yes, don’t forget to care of yourself! Self care is so important!
This is so true! I always say “you can’t pour from an empty cup.” I make sure to take time for myself at least once a week! Thanks for the reminder!
I needed to read this today. Thank you!!
This post is the truth. I love how you simply put the fact that if we mama’s don’t fill our cup we will have nothing to give!
Yes. I had a year of this when I had a parent die. I dove into self help books and they helped. Thank you for being honest about these types of feelings.
It’s always nice to be reminded that I’m doing my best and to take care of me.
I also belive that self-care is vital for growth and for staying motivated. 0
It can be hard while taking care of everyone else to take the time for myself. Thanks for the reminder.
