WAHM.com Weekly Blog Roundup — Take Time for Yourself

June 5, 2009 – 8:52 am

When working from home, it’s common for moms to be unable to separate themselves from their business and shut the office door at the end of the day.  When you work at a 9-to-5 job outside of the home, you leave the building at 5:00 and the workday is done.  Not so when you’re a work-at-home mom, and not knowing when to take a time-out makes for one stressed out mom.

Today’s blog roundup lists work-at-home blogs that offer some great advice about how to take time for yourself and/or your loved ones.

Home-Based Working Mom:   Every work-at-home mom I know at one point struggles with trying to do it all and the guilt that comes when they find that they can’t be Supermom.  Angie Peters shows us how to fight the Supermom Syndrome.

The Bizy Mom:  Lisa Paige at BizyMom.com offers advice on taking time out of your busy schedule for a little romance.  What better way to relax than spending some one-on-one time with your husband or significant other?

Working at Home on the Internet:  Brook Long nailed it when she posts, “Do what makes you feel good and relaxed and you’ll be a better mom and provider.”  Be sure to check out the rest of her awesome tips on taking time for yourself!

Do you take time out for yourself?  What do you like to do in your “time off”?

  4. I really believe that working online from home and making a living doing having passive streams of income instead of punching a time clock is the way to get to free up you time to spend more with the family. The initial time spent is hard but once it is setup it can be very automated.
