Stay at Home Moms: Energy Management Tips

Stay at Home Moms: Energy Management Tips

Stay at home moms are giving their family the most valuable gift possible–their time and attention. But a stay at home mom has tremendously busy days full of conflicting priorities and a seemingly unending list of tasks. Her energy is her most valuable asset when it comes to making it through those long, exhausting days.

With so much to do around the house taking care of the children and pets and yourself, cooking, cleaning, managing homework or teaching if you are homeschooling your children. Mothers want to give their children so much, but you can’t give what you don’t possess yourself. If you want to give your children the love and nurturing that they need in order to grow and thrive you must first give those things to yourself. Managing your energy is the key to handling everything that comes at you with poise and grace.

Here are some tips for planning your day and managing your energy as you complete your tasks:

Set Realistic Goals

Don’t try to be all things to all people. Aiming to be a supermom is a recipe for burnout and disaster. Learning to say no respectfully without making excuses is one of the biggest gifts you can give yourself.

Pace yourself

Break your larger goals into daily, and then hourly chunks.

Organize living and working space

Keeping your kitchen, office and your children’s rooms organized saves so much time and energy. When you don’t have to rush around looking for lost keys and that missing shoe things go more smoothly.

Identify your daily priorities

Choose the most important thing that you must do on a given day and go after that task first.

Schedule breaks throughout the day

Make sure to have some down time when you can just enjoy spending time reading or playing with your child.

Relax and breathe

When you are in the thick of things don’t forget to breathe. Taking deep, mindful breaths and even a 60 second meditation can completely shift your energy.

Re-assess goals weekly

Take the time weekly to decide what’s working and what needs to change. Ask yourself if you are you getting the support that you need. Is it time to stretch yourself further?

Mom Fired for Pumping Breast Milk at Work: Here’s How Moms Can Work at Home and Be There for Their Children

Friday, September 25th, 2009

Ohio working mother LaNisa Allen was fired by her employer for taking unauthorized breaks to pump her breast milk for her infant son. CNN’s Campbell Brown, a breastfeeding mother herself, covered this story reporting that Allen’s case was taken as far as the Ohio Supreme Court where her employer won the lawsuit. This is just one of the challenges that working moms face when they try to go back to work after having a baby.

Many women feel forced to make these tough decisions in order to be able to earn money to help support their family, or in the case of single mothers completely supporting their households. But working outside of the home is not the only option for today’s working mothers. It is possible to become a stay at home mom while also earning enough money to support your family.

The Internet has made it possible to set up and operate a thriving business from home utilizing the knowledge, skills and passion that you already possess. The National Association of Stay at Home Moms (NASAHM) website should be your first stop when you are considering becoming a work at home mom. Membership in the NAHASM includes some of the following:

Mothers often feel torn between their desire to care for their children and their family’s need for a second income to help support the family. If you are one of those moms who is determined to make a way to be there so that you can raise your children yourself from breastfeeding them and throughout all of those exciting developmental milestones, then you owe it to yourself to investigate the possibilities of becoming a stay at home mom who earns a solid income while balancing her responsibilities, and her love for her children with her business and career goals.
