3 Health Hacks to Switch Mom Stress and Tension from Chaos to Calm
Okay, moms, let's get started. Since we know your kiddos are always your top priority, the majority of the content we publish on our site is for you and your children.
Your days are occupied with making sure your kids have everything they need, like meals, appointments, extracurricular activities, and health care.
You spend so much time and effort on your family that you frequently forget about your own well-being. Being a mom is one of the most wonderful jobs, but it's also one of the hardest to keep up with and one that can be quite stressful and exhausting.
However, We're here to assure you that there is a way out. We have helped many families as pediatric and family chiropractors, but our favorite times are when moms seek help for their own health.
So let's discuss three simple and useful health tips you can use to improve your wellbeing despite a busy schedule.
Considering how busy your schedule is, let's first point out that these tips are practical in the real world. We recognize that you lack the luxury of taking a month off to attend a wellness retreat. Instead, we're interested in making the most of your time by offering simple, quick solutions that fit into your normal daily routine.
With firsthand experience we've been able to impart to hundreds of patients, you may approach parenting with a fresh outlook. You'll be the kind of mother that can handle any situation while also radiating a mystical vibe. Without the tightness that so many moms experience in the "mom zone," which is located between your shoulders and the base of your neck, you'll be able to sleep soundly.
So you can be the best mom you can be, I'm going to go over the reasons for this stress and tension as well as how you can handle it.
Many of the moms we see in our office are accustomed to prioritizing the health of their kids before their own. But we encourage these moms to consider what it would be like if they put their own health first.
In response, many mothers have said that they believe it is difficult to live a life free of anxiety and stress. Due to chronic health issues, a sense of being perpetually exhausted, or feelings of anxiety, they may think they are beyond repair.
However, the reality is that you are able to control your health and get rid of stress. To get through the day, you do not necessarily need to rely on medications and caffeine.
You can strengthen your nervous system and enhance your overall well-being by receiving chiropractic care. This will make you more resilient, active, and less anxious. You have the authority to lead by example in adopting healthy habits and creating a healthy environment in your home.
Setting your personal health as a top priority is the first step in raising resilient, healthy children.
Mom Stress Is Real
The more time we spend in these patterns, the more stress our bodies store. Fortunately, our first tip - chiropractic adjustments with a neurological focus can relieve that tension and provide comfort.
Chiropractic Adjustments
The best thing is you only need two to three minutes. We refer to this as a "health hack." Let's face it: most people don't have time for 90 minutes of yoga, meditation, growing their own vegetables, or creating organic smoothies on a daily basis. The most effective method for resetting and recalibrating the nervous system is a chiropractic adjustment. It feels fantastic and is quick and efficient. An adjustment resembles a massage or a vigorous yoga session.
Moms' stress levels can be evaluated using our EMG scans, and the tension can be reduced. But the advantages go further than that. Did you know that thyroid stabilization can also be achieved with lower neck adjustments? Additionally, by making adjustments to the middle and lower midback, we can help in calming the adrenals and stomach, which can enhance intestinal health and reduce anxiety. Getting adjusted is efficient, allowing you to take advantage of this powerful health tip while still getting in and out of the office quickly.
Exercise
Now what are the additional two health tips? Let's start by discussing exercise. Exercise is important for both our physical and mental health, but finding the time to fit it in can be challenging for busy mom's. The easiest thing to do is to try and exercise for at least 10 to 20 minutes each day, whether it be through a short run, a vigorous workout, a yoga session, or a combination of these. Those 10 to 20 minutes can have a significant impact on how you feel and perform, even on the busiest days.
Of course, it's best if you can set aside an hour each day for exercise. Don't undervalue the benefits of those quick workouts, though. Put it in your calendar and safeguard it. Making movement a priority can make the remainder of your day more productive and efficient, even in small doses.
Supplements
Let's finally discuss supplements. Being a busy parent leaves us frequently exhausted and in need of additional support for our neurological and adrenal systems. When we most need an energy boost, supplements like magnesium and zinc can support good neurological function and provide us that lift. You might experience a significant change in how you feel if you spend a few minutes each day incorporating these nutrients into your regimen.
The Importance of Giving Mom's Health Top Priority
Moms, we could continue forever. We love to talk about the value of chiropractic care for both yourself and your children. We have personally witnessed the profound impact that putting your health first can have on both your life and the lives of your family.
You become more robust and adaptable when you're able to do what you need to do as a mom without the tiredness, anxiety, irritation, and fatigue. You can eliminate all those by getting chiropractic care. As a result, you and your family will have a better life experience.
Here's a story from one of our PX Docs Dr. Tony Ebel
"Let me share a story about one of the families I am currently taking care of. They drive an hour to see me at our clinic here in the suburbs of Chicago. The mom brought her son, who is on the spectrum, and her middle school daughter, who was experiencing focus and anxiety challenges. But what's amazing is that the mom realized the importance of stress on the nervous system and asked if she could receive chiropractic care too.
After six weeks of care, I noticed a significant change in the mom's posture, face, neck, and shoulders. I asked her how she was feeling, and she started to cry. She said that receiving chiropractic care had changed everything for her. She used to be consumed with stress and anxiety, which led to her yelling and screaming at her kids. But now, she is much more relaxed and happy, which has made their family experience more enjoyable."
Our PX Docs network believes that moms shouldn't constantly experience fatigue and anxiety. Instead, we focus on using chiropractic adjustments to strengthen and restore your nervous system. We'll be the first to encourage you to complete your workouts and take your vitamins. Everything in your life will work at its peak when your nervous system is in its best state.
We provide care for the entire family—moms, dads, and kids—for this reason. We think that when a family receives regular chiropractic care, everyone can live a long and healthy life. Also, kids are more inclined to prioritize their health when they see their parents doing so.
Moms, taking care of your health is important for both you and your children. If you're not already under care and want to relieve stress and tension, an Insight Scan can help identify the extent of nervous system stress in your body. This information can be used to develop a plan for reducing stress and promoting better health.
As a special offer in celebration of Mother's (Every)Day, we are providing a complimentary Insight Scan with your first appointment. Take action today and call us at 678-404-9950 to start your journey towards a happier, healthier and stress-less life.
