Being a mom is hard work and often underrated in the family.

Being a superhero can really wear you out both physically and mentally. Here are a few tips to be the best mom you can be, not just to your family but also to yourself.

Moms are often praised as being selfless, taking care of everyone else before themselves. But being a little selfish is a bad thing. I’m talking self care. It is just as important to take care of your own mental health as well as make you a better parent.

Along the same lines, spending time with friends can often get sidelined for family duties and schedules. It is important to take time for yourself and your other relationships. Think of it as a time off from your kids. It will help you reset your mind and can even restore patience.

Finally, it is important to remember that a victory, no matter how small, deserves to be celebrated. Take the win and use it to fuel your day and your motivation. Even if it’s just getting your kids to put the dirty dishes in the sink.
