Do you ask yourself sometimes if have you ever changed since you started motherhood? Do you feel like you’ve lost the old you? Do you ask yourself why and how your past self just slipped away and transformed into something else that is not you anymore? Have you lost your individualism or self-identity?
Do you feel like time vanishes in thin air and you realize you are losing a moment for yourself? You might forget yourself because of prioritizing the needs of your little ones. Maybe it’s true, as the clock moves faster when you raise your child, time for yourself is also becoming scarce.
Do you feel like what’s on your plate is more like for others rather than for your needs? All the household chores- the laundry, the cleaning, the groceries, meal preparations are all piled up on your list. You almost forget your well-being. Does it seem like everything else on your plate takes precedence over your own needs? Why has it become a trend to prioritise others’ needs before yourself? Will it be okay to sometimes prioritise our own well-being and ask for help on these unending chores?
You’ve already provided all the happiness and needs of your children leaving you drained and exhausted. Self-care is so distant and out of reach that even relaxation and even doing skin care is like a real luxury.

Despite all the busy schedule of working, grinding, and becoming a mother, remind yourself that it’s okay to relax and take your “me” time for a moment. Reconnect with yourself and take back all the time that you once thought was gone for good. Engage with people that matter to you and those who remind you of the old you. Involve yourself with activities that you really enjoy as an individual who has their own interest and hobbies.
