Put your health first

As a mom, whether you are running around after toddlers or nursing newborns(or both), it is so important that you maintain your flexibility and stretching in both your joints and muscles. In my own experience it is so easy to get caught up with taking care of others only to neglect your own heath and well-being.

We all have good intentions to not let that happen but some how we put ourselves last when it comes to the list of priorities. If you are in pain or uncomfortable you are not as efficient doing the things you need to do and cranky with everyone around you!!!

When I compare the moms who put their health as a priority compared to moms who suffer till they are in so much pain, the ones who are consistant with their treatments, chiropractic, massage, yoga etc...are happier, healthier and their families benefit from it.

Take guilt out of the equation and make time for yourself. I know its easier said than done sometimes because it does take effort. You and your little ones are worth it!!!
