I try to shut the computer down at 6 these days. . . TRY is the key word! And yes, trying to remember to eat, sleep and walk daily too!

Couldn’t agree more. I struggle with the walks, trying to get two little ones ready to go out walking on a winters day is a pain! But I’m working on it. Make sure you get enough water too. I really notice the difference in my mental and physical health if I keep up the fluids.

I completely agree about getting up and taking a walk – I try to schedule in 10-minute breaks for myself, even at the office, so that I can break up my work into small chunks and not stare at a computer screen for 10 hours a day. Just getting up to get a glass of water or go to the bathroom can really make a difference!

Great ideas. I had been taking the kids out for long walks; they nap and I get some quiet brain time and exercise. But here in the Pacific Northwest we are having a series of gray days and when it’s been sunny we’ve been sick. I think it’s time to really sit down with the kiddos (ages 1 and 3) and color! Outside the lines! That’s the break I’m going to give myself today.

I really liked this article. Some of these things seem like common sense, but they are hard to put into practice- for instance, the planning of dinners and kids’ lunches. I know I would be less stressed if I could make the time to do these things! Thanks for the reminder

When I need time for myself, I go to the library, with no kids. I get my favorite mag or book off the shelf or research for a fun project I want to do. It requires no money and is very relaxing.
