After reading the post by JenLemen entitled "Avoiding Burnout : 8 Surefire Ways to Get Your Energy Back" regarding inventive ways to rejuvenate yourself as a parent .... Oh how the guilt pressed down upon me ... I loved the advice that JenLemen gave regarding ways to pamper ourselves
as parents and taking a moment out of the day for ourselves .... but how can we work to not feel guilty for giving ourselves a moment ? My advice : We can not be good parents if we are not healthy, happy and full of energy ! So, let's shed ourselves of guilt and take better care of ourselves .... If we parents are not happy and healthy, then our children will not be either .... Relax and enjoy and our babies will follow suit ...Avoid feeling guilty for taking good care of yourself because taking care of yourself makes you a better parent ...
