overwhelm means to bury or to drown underneath a huge mass Wow raise your
hand if you have been an overwhelmed busy mom lately with so much to do how
are we as busy moms supposed to deal with all this overwhelm in this video we
are going to go over the one way that we can conquer that crazy feeling of
overwhelm so stay tuned if we haven't met before my name is Sharon Schuler
founder of elite mom planning where we help create calm from the overwhelm for
that busy stay-at-home working mom as a mom myself with five children and my
husband running his family dairy farm there are a lot of moments where I feel
overwhelmed I'm super excited today to go over that one secret that we can use
to conquer those crazy overwhelmed feelings and that one secret it's not
hard but I think we as moms forget or just need permission but the secret is
to stop and what I mean by stop is to stop trying to be supermom while it may
sound cliche how many of us moms have to-do lists that are just running away
from us or life events that have happened to us that we never would have
imagined here are five ways that we can stop and this first one if you're
tossing and turning in your sleep trying to go to sleep this one's for you
and it's turned off the mantra how many times does that mental mantra of
overwhelm keep us awake how many times do we listen to it when we're exhausted
and it just makes the overwhelm heavier and peace seem far from us so stop that
mental mantra right in its tracks use positive affirmations for yourself ones
that you can pre-research or just think of in the moment to tell that negative
of mental mantra to go take a hike I know for myself late at night when I'm
exhausted is the worst time or the best time for those mental mantras to happen
but I'm not a good enough mom I didn't do good enough today it wasn't enough
it's just those those thoughts and feelings that will just flood in so I
need to just say I am tired I just need to go to bed I am a good mom and I did
my best today I love my kids and they love me
and go to bed so switch out that negative mental mantra for some positive
affirmations that you can just keep repeating to yourself step number two is
easy enough to say sometimes it can be the hardest thing to do but is to talk
to someone don't talk to anybody but talk to someone who cares who cares
about your children who cares about what's happening to them who cares about
you you can either approach the subject with
I need to talk to you simple as that or you can say hey do you have a little
bit of time right now I know sometimes a lot of us busy moms
we could use our spouse or significant other as the perfect person to talk to
about who cares about what's happening in our life another great resource could
be your mom a grandparent or close BFF whoever it is just make sure you
approach them at not the correct time but a time when they're not busy or
freaking out to this or he could have to freak out mom's just going at it and
just talking about their day that could work too number three is to stop trying
to be supermom and having it all together we can do a few things just to
let some stuff go let the dishes pile up a little ask the children to help with
some chores around the house supervise them and get them into the habit of
helping around the house that way it's not all on you maybe get some the
children to help you cook supper that way you're teaching them and slowly over
time they'll be able to take over some of those responsibilities as well
husband significant other the ongoing
communication of your needs and the needs of the house and how you can't
have it all together is a great conversation to start that will lead you
to help stop doing some things are there some extracurricular activities that the
children are doing that need to go or may we just need to be paused for a
season as you guys go through something or as you try to figure out your
schedule to better handle other things the point here is just to let something
slide you want permission permission granted number four is to know your
limit and to stick to it this one can be hard because a lot of
the times the limits that we have and we set for ourselves or limits that we've
learned by experience but that's okay just make sure that you remember your
experience that you had either write it down or make sure you tell your husband
about it so that it won't happen again too quickly but if you know your limit
it's so easy to say no to things up will pop up through your week because it's
not a question of one they just pop up right the fifth and final way that we
can stop is to just be you it's so simple but I don't know if there's
something about that word or title motherhood that can kind of make us
forget about the girl or woman that was before we were moms I know that's
happened for myself but remember who you are and just be you even when you have
kids I know for myself there was a moment about many moments but a huge
moment that I had like about a year ago after my fifth child and I was just
crying at night just I just couldn't stop crying and I was telling my husband
about all these things that I just wish I was more how can I be better or what
can I do more to be a better mom and stuff and his advice was just priceless
it was stop trying to be more or better or a little more loving and more time or
more organized or more plans or more to-do list and just be
just your mom it's messy there's dishes all the time all the time I don't know
where they come from on the counter there's laundry constantly cycling
through this house there I'm sure there is for you too there's always work to be
done there's always more time to spend with the children more plans to make
more tasks to do more things to put into your calendar but just forget about the
more forget about the better and just be be yourself be who you are and just be
enjoy life and be I know it's a universal truth that everything we have
can be improved upon but for today I wanted to say and be your cheerleader
bring you permission whatever it is that you need to hear before today just don't
don't improve yourself don't improve your husband or try to improve your kids
don't try to improve your meal plan don't try to improve your to-do list
don't try to improve your laundry or dishes or dirty hair whatever you have
going on but just be if you find that you need a little bit more time for you
because you're feeling so overwhelmed and you're getting to that verge of
burnout I would encourage you just to take a little bit of time to go through
your schedule to grab those pieces of leftover time because little pieces here
and there will add up to a happy bomb if you find the time and make sure that you
work on or do something that you absolutely love to do during those mummy
moments I created a free workbook it's called making time for mom I will leave
the link in the description box below but go ahead and grab it because in
there I walk you through step by step where to find the time that's left over
in your schedule and what you could do with that time and how it can fill you
up keeping you off the verge of burnout off of the overwhelm by focusing on
something that you love to do if it's crafting or reading a book or binge
watching NetFlow or writing a book whatever it is that
you love to do just to spend a little bit of time on you or would encourage
you to go ahead and grab it go ahead and like this video if you want to see some
