My Top 5 Ways to Relieve Stress #StressLess2BmyBest #CG

As a busy working mom with three girls, there are days where it can get pretty overwhelming.  I try to put everything into perspective and not stress when the going gets tough.

This winter has been a stressful one.  Not only has it snowed, but there were many days of unbearably cold temperatures.  Shoveling, shoveling again!  Looking for gloves and snow gear over and over.  It can make you want to scream.

Snow oh no

But instead,  I think it is important to reflect and figure out how you can relieve the daily stresses.

a Top 5 Ways to relieve stress

My Top 5 Ways to Relieve Stress

1. Take a deep breath and take a look around you.

If it were warmer weather, I would say, Stop and Smell the Roses, but I haven’t seen grass in awhile.  Although the challenges of snow and the cold can be overwhelming, it does offer a beautiful way to reflect and look at nature.  Even after a cold winter, I find the moments after a snowstorm peaceful.

Ways to Relieve Stress

2.  Enjoy the moment.  

Get out there and have fun.  We all have a lot on our plate but get out there with your children and play.

3. Take the Plunge and go for it. 

Don’t be afraid.  Have fun and enjoy the moment!

4. Think positive thoughts.

Just when you think it is going to be cold forever, spring might actually arrive.  When the sun was shining and my car thermometer was rising, all I could think about was planting beautiful flowers and how happy I felt at that moment.

    I agree with you about thinking positive thoughts but I did catch myself a few times in February asking if winter would ever end! lol

    This was a good reminder, since it seems to be easier to get stressed than to reduce stress.

So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macy So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macys and Santa! Last night, we took the train into the city to preview #Macys #Santaland I have to say it was quite magical. Although my youngest was 12, Santa was able to connect to her and put us all in the holiday spirit. 

I believe. I believe….

My mom also came with us. We started talking and I think it was almost 40 years ago that she took us to visit Santa at Macys. I was so happy to visit Santa with her and my youngest for a three generation experience.

Don’t forget to check out the beautiful window displays as you enjoy all of #NYC during the holidays!

#ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but #ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but 1 in 5 adults suffer from mental illness and disorders today. 

Let’s reduce the stigma by opening up the conversation in the classroom and at home.
As a teacher and a mom of 3, I know how important it is to be there and be a good listener.

Conversations are super important. It’s never too early (or too late) to have these conversations with your students or your own children.

Operation Conversation is a check-in on kids’ mental health. When we start simple habits of conversations, we can learn about concerns or problems our students are dealing with, help them problem solve, and build their confidence for life’s difficult moments. 

Teachers can help to destigmatize mental health starting in their own classrooms by talking to their students about mental health using a free deck of conversation starter cards. Parents can also use these cards to support good conversations while at home. I know as a mom, I can use all the help I can get. 

#Giveaway Alert! 
I have 5 decks of Conversation Starter Decks of cards to give away to 5 lucky winners to help you get the conversation flowing! 

To enter:
1. Comment on this post as to why you would love the conversation starter deck of cards. 
 2. Follow @OnOurSleevesOfficial
3. Follow me @SavvyMomNY  I will pick the winners after 10pm on 11/22

Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest and touring her sister on first college visit. Maybe it’s a sign that they should be together. Totally bittersweet and we went to visit Binghamton in October 2019 and only made it to two more before March 2020. I’m only thinking of bright skies ahead for the both of them filled with amazing memories and wonderful opportunities 💚

New York state has so many wonderful places to be New York state has so many wonderful places to be a part of . From the bright lights of NYC, to quiet places of respite in its parks and wooded areas. Time to walk, hike and reflect. Being active and busy is something that I hope my teens learn from and something we can do together to enjoy all the beauty and nature it has to offer while keeping NY tobacco free. Did you know that our oldest generation of smokers are now dying? After them, you have me and a very large group of people who do not smoke at all. So, who’s next? Instead of taking cigarettes off the shelves, the tobacco industry views today’s teens as tomorrow’s customers, using menthol-flavored products to attract and addict kids – and it’s working. More than half (54%) of youth who smoke (ages 12-17 years) use menthol cigarettes. making it easier for kids to start and harder for them to quit. Menthol is not JUST a flavor, it attracts and addicts kids As a teen mom, I am sharing this so we can all take action! Learn more about the impact of Big Tobacco’s manipulative tactics on our communities and how you can take action to help end this injustice. Let’s keep our kids enjoying the wonderful things our state has to offer. Link in bio #NotJustMenthol #TobaccoFreeNYS #ad @tobaccofreenys
