So often we establish routines and create checklists to manage our day to day tasks. How often do we include rest? The laundry, dishes and other housework will be there no matter what!
Your family eats and wear clothes daily, so it will be there. You without rest, may not! The body can not function sufficiently without rest. This is for ANYONE!
For Black mothers in particular, research has shown that they often face unique stressors and challenges, such as systemic racism and discrimination, which can take a toll on their mental and physical health. In light of this, rest and self-care become even more essential to maintaining overall well-being. Black moms deserve rest!!
Adequate rest is essential for good physical and mental health, and can improve productivity, concentration, and overall quality of life. So it's important to prioritize rest and self-care as part of your daily routine.
Rest y'all!
