Hey, Momma! I know life is full-on busy—between the kids, work, and everything else, it can feel impossible to squeeze in a moment for yourself. But let’s be real for a second: self-care is a must! It’s not just a luxury, it’s essential for showing up as the best version of YOU for your family, your job, and everyone else who needs you.

But listen, self-care doesn’t have to mean spa days or hour-long facials (though, those are always a treat, right?!). Sometimes, it’s the little things that make the biggest difference.

 

I’ve found a few simple, no-fuss ways to carve out some “me time,” and trust me, they’ve made all the difference.

Sneak in an extra 15 minutes for yourself.

Set your alarm just 15 minutes before you absolutely have to get up. I know, I know... if you’re not a morning person, this might sound awful! But giving yourself that quiet time in the morning—without the mad rush—can set the tone for the whole day. Whether you use it to stretch, sip coffee, or just breathe, that little window is magic. ✨

Treat your hobbies like appointments.

Schedule your favorite hobbies into your calendar like it’s an appointment you can’t miss;  want to dive into a book?  Put 30 minutes on your calendar!  You love drawing? Put that 30 minutes on your calendar and that sketchbook ready for you!  Want to learn how to play guitar?  Schedule a weekly virtual lesson!

DIY your skincare routine.

Instead of making expensive appointments; master your own facial routine by investing in some tools.  I used to go get facials every quarter or so, but it always was so expensive!  Instead, I invested in all of these tools where I take an extra 5-10 minutes each evening before bed or in the morning to give my skin some love.  To be honest, my skin has never looked better!

Move your body, love your body.

Working out isn’t just about staying in shape—it’s about feeling good from the inside out. Those happy hormones (hello, endorphins! 😊😊) and a stronger body are honestly the best gifts you can give yourself. And if you need some extra motivation, BGTV has got your back with quick, fun workouts that fit into even the busiest of schedules.
