Importance of dating yourself

You probably will not realize that you truly need to spend some time only with yourself until your little ones get a little bit older. And to be honest, reading a book in the warm and cozy bath is not enough. You should definitely do something really exciting, something that would make your mind a little bit lost again, but in a good way, of course. Something spectacular outside the house. Yeah, sure, those precious moments of being alone are always good, but they have lost their preciousness as long as you do not have a choice to exchange them to something fun out of your comfort zone. There is no consideration that to put yourself first when you have a family is a huge challenge, but you still should do it time after time. You count too, do not ever forget that. And by the way, by having those short breaks from your life, you will get a chance to put your thoughts together and you will surely become an even better version of yourself.

Does not matter how rare, do it anyway

There is no person in the world who does not need at least a little escape from his life. Being a parent is no exception. You should never feel like you are week, just because you need to get some rest, you are a simple human being, and to be honest, this will only make you stronger.

Do not allow the guilt take over you

It might easily get you to the point when you feel weird, because how you can feel not guilty for getting pedicure instead of taking care of your little ones. But as time goes, it gets much easier and everyone in your family will realize how important it is for you have a break.

Take care of yourself

Taking care of our selves is so important that it is so strange parents forget about it. Even though it seems impossible, but can you relate to the fact that you do not ask for help as long as you are not desperate? Oh, and there is truly very little chance that you have dated yourself. There is probably no full day you spend alone. You have probably totally forgotten about yourself, like you do not exist, just because your children are more important than you, but in fact, if you take care of yourself, it will make you a better mother, which means, helping you is helping your kids.

It is your time, and only yours

Everyone enjoys different things while being alone, that is why it does not matter what you wish to do, if you want it, do it, no matter how strange it might seem. You are the most important person in that moment, so make that day about you.

Gowth continues all the time

There is no reason to think that after having kids you should stop growing and changing. Yes, of course, it does stop for a little, but if you will not continue your journey of life, what will you do when your little ones will not be that little and will grow their own?  Also, you cannot forget that you are not just a mother, you are the person you used to be when you were younger, so do not allow yourself to not show that side of yourself for your children.
