Being a mom can really be stress-fully despite the unique and awesomeness that comes with it. A constant
learning circle that never seem to end. One minute she is pregnant with all the
woes,the next minute is nourishing, swaddling, diapering, soothing, a pediatrician on the outlook for signs and symptoms of infant ailments, and that
is not the end, she is way out of your depth, struggling to navigate a stormy
sea of new emotions that are unique only to moms.
After nurturing three
wonderful gift of lives it becomes more exhausting she tends to put her own
health at the bottom of her priority list. Financial responsibilities even made
it worse. Constantly saying to herself "I'm fine. I don't need time away
from my family because they are all I need to be happy." Kept accumulating
the stress and the pounds years over years. She sits to reflect and realize now how she let her own needs slide. It sometimes seem like she had no time for
anything. But found time saying yes or trying to squeeze in every invitation to
hang out with a friend/friends. She sits to evaluate those invitations and
realize she could have shaped the date to fit in with her workout and health
needs? Rather than meeting for cocktails every time she went out, started with
a walk, or a run ... you get the idea. (Sometimes you do need the cocktail,
though – let’s use our judgement, mamas!) THE GREATEST GIFT YOU CAN GIVE YOUR
FAMILY AND WORLD IS THE HEALTHY YOU. – Joyce Meyer.
For me being fit means
physically and mentally fit. To function optimally or enjoy the whole package
both must be met. Mental fitness can only be achieved if your body is
functioning well. You can help relax your own mind and eliminate stresses by
exercising regularly and eating right.

the family bonds and creating wonderful family traditions. As a mother you control the dinner Table what
Author and fitness expert Debbie Mandel states, “Children who exercise do
better academically and learn how to reduce stress. In essence, adults in the
household are showing children a healthy way to relieve stress and improve
their thinking while they (the adults) practice what they preach. Children are
always observing their parents and picking up on their body language, not just
their words.” And who does this well than the MADAM OF THE HOUSE.
• People who are physically fit are also healthier,
are able to maintain their most optimum weight, and are also not prone to
cardiac and other health problems.
