Mums are heroes, no doubt. But even heroes need a break some times. Whether as a career mum or a stay-at-home mum, there is always so much work to do in so little time.

These tips will help you maintain a balance and keep cool when things get chaotic.

1. Ask for help when you need it.

Time has taught me that I can’t do it all so I have cultivated the habit to ask my husband for help. Thankfully, that helps a bit.

2. Plan your time:

Now that my son has started creche, it’s easier to plan my day without getting to my breaking point. For weekends, I plan my time and try to stick to it. It’s not the easiest thing to do in the world, but it sure keeps me sane.

3. Accept you can’t do it all.

You are a super mum but even superheroes take time out to recharge (ask Clark Kent)

4. Take time to rest and take care of yourself

Do as much as you can and leave the rest. Work they say, work never ends.

Love, Tosin
