Mom Retreat in PA
I know there are a ton of PA Mom’s that I know and I told Mia that I would pass on her retreat information to all of you. I wish I lived closer so i could go. The place looks great and it’s going to be a weekend all about taking care of just you. My favorite motto!
The retreat will focus on the principles in Mia’s book Time for mom-ME: five essential strategies for a mother’s self-care. Spa treatments and lots of relaxation along with classes to help you remember to make yourself a priority.
View full details of the event on the time for mom-me website. You can never be disappointed in taking time to remember how important you are as a person and not just a Mom.
If you can make it, let her know I sent you. I promised I’d put up some blog posts for her and help get the word out. I’ve got to find something closer for me to attend.

What is self love?
Self-love is an understanding that caring and accepting oneself provides healing. Just as we express care for our children when they have an interest, a hurt, make a mistake or fall, showing ourselves the same understanding provides us room to grow. When we express self- love, we refuel our spirit and refresh our life. Make room for yourself today to finally take cooking lessons or to enroll in that aerobics class. Remembering what you love is a great starting point.
Five simple strategies to show yourself love this month:
- Make yourself a priority! Choose to place yourself at the top of your list of things to do.
- Choose an activity for you. Along with scheduling gymnastics or swim class for the children this month, choose an activity for you. Perhaps you could take time to have tea with a friend, take a short walk after dinner or join a book club.
Write yourself a love letter!Take some time and review what qualities and traits you like about yourself. Begin your letter with: Dear_____, You are …… (Be sure to use words that describe your personal attributes).
Schedule a check up. Place your health at the top of the list this year. When was your last medical appointment? Are you healthy? Do you have important medical questions? Let’s get them answered.
Take a long bath weekly! During the evening, schedule a long bath with yourself. Remember to plan ahead and bring a favorite book, music or special fragrances that invigorate you. (I love the products at Carole’s Daughter. Here is the web site at www.carolsdaughter.com. These products make me happy.)
Place something beautiful in your home just for you! Light your favorite candles or buy yourself flowers this month.
Live Fully,
Mia
Challenge! During this month keep something beautiful that you love in your life daily.
