Advice to mothers of young children

I feel like the first 5 years of parenting (each child) call on energy we should have banked before children. Throw in an extra life-challenge and you need to make self-care your part-time job. It is really about priorities. If learning something new feeds you, even if it applies to parenting, that counts. If creating something feeds you, even if you sell it, it counts. How you view your work and actions can be like an Energy-Star come up. Find balance and joy in whatever you can. You don't need to sit quietly in a dark room to meditate. In fact, dishwashing is a great time to try it. Try clearing your mind of worry and focusing on simple actions or tasks.
