Making time for yourself is never easy, but it should always be a priority. I wish I could be with my children every waking moment (and watch them while they sleep), but it's important for their development, my growth as a mother and my relationship with my husband that I get alone time to decompress every once in a while.

Here are some of my favorite ways to relax, celebrate my mommy-hood, adulthood and, well, me. I hope you are inspired to take a little time for yourself too!
