Mother’s Day always make me reflect on my childhood and also myself as a mother.
Growing up, my mother raised 5 kids on her own.
5 kids!
I can’t even imagine that with 2 parents. I give her a lot of credit for that.
Unfortunately I often saw a different side of my mother because she was constantly under stress.
We, as women, are expected to play a constant juggling game with raising our kids and with our careers. This can often lead to lots of stress.
Stress causes a lot of frustration in our lives but more than that it is one of the top contributors to disease and bad health. When it was my turn to be a mother I tried to make sure I wasn’t letting stress get the best of me.
Here’s how I stopped this stress cycle:
(You can use this to helps your mothers, yourself, or the person who nurtures you in your life)
1) Create Moments for yourself/ Meditate
Whether it’s taking some extra time putting on lotions for your body or taking a few moments to take a deep breath make sure you/ your mother create this time for herself. Shaklee offers an amazing line of Lotions that would help your mother with these moments

2) Exercise
I can’t tell you how much this helped me as a mother! Dancing & Chi- Gong have been an integral part of my life and giving myself time to do these activities helped me be a better mother.
3) Shaklee’s Cinch Shakes

The Cinch Shake helps balance blood sugar first thing in the morning so you (or your mother!) can calmly get the kids to school or be energetic for the day ahead.
4) Do Less
Mothers often say yes to everything. Learn to respect your mom’s time or if you are a mom learn that you can’t (and shouldn’t) do everything. Focus on what’s important.
5) Shaklee’s Stress Relief Complex

Another life saver. This can help your mom (or you!) reduce the effect of stress in your life. When you are stressed your body releases a lot of cortisol which causes your body to become burnt out. Shaklee’s Stress Relief Complex helps balance out your cortisol levels and helps your body get out of the ‘flight’ mode.
It’s important we all learn how to manage our stress. Help yourself and your mom by using the above tools to have a healthier more sane life!
