What to Do When You’re Overwhelmed by Your Home

Are you feeling overwhelmed as a mom? Are you just wishing you could take some things off your plate to make your life a little easier?

Whether it’s because of a new baby, sick children, a big project at work, or plain old exhaustion, sometimes we need to slow down and stop trying to do so much.

Decide to do less.

Make a conscious decision to let the non-essential things slide for a while.

Use paper plates.

And paper cups, utensils, napkins, etc. Not having to wash dishes will save you a lot of time and energy.

Keep meals simple.

Sometimes, not having to cook a meal gives you time to catch up or catch your breath.

Use your crockpot.

If you know you’re going to be busy, plan on simple crockpot meals that you can prepare ahead of time.

Use your Instant Pot.

If you’re in a time crunch, use an Instant Pot to whip up a quick meal.
