Having Time for Yourself And What To Do With It’

As a mother, we often don’t have much time to ourselves. Even using a solo trip to the toilet as a chance to be on our own, can anyone else relate? But we hear more and more about the importance of mothers having some time to themselves to recharge the batteries, eat well, exercise and feel in touch with their own identity once more. Let’s face it, we can all get a little wrapped up in motherhood and forget who we are from time to time. So getting that all-important “me time” can be enough to help you do that and remain sane in the process. With that in mind, here are some of the fun ways you could enjoy this time to yourself.

Indulge in a little online retail therapy

It can be all too stressful to head to the shops and look around potential clothes for you with children in town. If they don’t want the bathroom, then they are bored or hungry. So online shopping has fast become an easy and convenient way for you to peruse some items just for you and indulge now and again. 

Create a WhatsApp group with other friends and enjoy a gossip 

Sometimes getting out of the house and having an adult conversation with other like-minded individuals can be too much. So a great alternative is to use the popular application called WhatsApp and create a group. You can instantly chat with one another and gossip. Get yourself a glass of wine and sit in your comfortable pajamas and put the world to rights. 

Arrange a ladies night in with your closest friends

If you get the opportunity where you and your closest friends have a night free, then arrange a gathering at your home and invite them all round. A few cheeky beverages in the fridge and some nibbles is all you need. Even if you just chat for an hour, the time in adult company can be really uplifting and have a positive influence on you. Even there are adult chatting sites like Flingster where you can have some fun chatting online with strangers from different corners of the world, and this you can do without revealing your identity. 

Sometimes the simple things are the best

Sometimes it can be the simple things that can make us feel human again. That might be taking a long soak in a warm bath or reading a book you have had on your bedside table for what seems like ages. It might even be indulging in herbal remedies or vaping, where experts such as Daniel Fung have some excellent insight into certain vaping options that could prove useful. These simple things we once maybe took for granted will feel like a real treat, and you will appreciate yourself so much more. 

Watch a bit of trashy TV

Finally, you may have a real guilty pleasure for trashy tv like the real housewives programs or Big Brother. So why not set the record and series link, so you have some episodes of your favourite show to hand when the opportunity arises. 

Let’s  hope this has inspired you with some of the best ways you can spend your important “me time.”
