In reply to Vi Ho.

Slowing down is crucial for us moms to reset. Recognizing the need to step away for a bit greatly helps in managing everyday stress.

One cannot neglect the other. Significant others who support moms make all the difference. Because you know someone has your back when things are about to go downhill or even before it happens.

Thank you, Vi, for sharing how you manage stress and that works for you.

Whenever I’m feeling stressed, I try to slow down in whatever I’m doing, or just take a break and do something I like. I feel that it’s important for me to find ways to destress because my family and my kids depend on me a lot, but I’m thankful that my husband steps up whenever I need him to take over. Thanks for sharing these great tips!
