5 Reasons You Need a Momcation
Moms do a lot for their kids, from cooking meals and general care to offering unconditional love and support. Not to mention, some moms do all of this while also having a full-time job — in addition to the full-time job of being a mom, of course. While we have one day a year dedicated to celebrating mothers, sometimes they need a bit more. That’s why, if you’re a mom, this blog post is for you! You deserve some time to yourself, whether it’s completely on your own or with a group of your close girlfriends. Whatever the case may be, we here at JP Travel can help you get just that with a momcation! A momcation is just as it sounds — it’s a vacation just for moms full of relaxation, pampering, and the best part? No kids! We understand it can feel selfish and possibly make you feel guilty, but you more than deserve it. In this post, we will talk about five reasons you need a momcation, so buckle up, and when you’re ready, reach out to JP Travel to book your momcation today!
It Will Be Good for Your Family
One of the most common worries moms have about leaving their families behind is that everything will explode without them there. Sure, there are some messes that won’t get cleaned and some laundry that may not get folded right away, and your child’s favorite stuffed animal may stay lost a little longer than normal, but it’s important to remember that leaving for a while will be good for your family. Not only will they get a chance to bond a little more, but it will also benefit you and how you fit into the family unit. As a mother, it’s important to take some time for yourself, for both your sanity and your mental health. By leaving, you’ll be able to better take care of yourself, which will directly translate into how you take care of your family.
You’ll Love Coming Back Home
What’s better than leaving? Coming home! Leaving your family will probably be extremely difficult, and you will likely miss them a lot while you’re gone. However, you’ll forget how hard it was and how much you missed them as soon as you step through the front door. There’s nothing like coming home, especially when your home is full of the people you love.
Motherhood Is a Full-Time Job
As we mentioned above, motherhood is a full-time job. There may be some people who disagree, but they are wrong. Period. Even if you’re not a stay-at-home mom, being a mother is still a full-time job, especially considering you wear so many hats, including chef, housekeeper, expert detective, a shoulder to cry on, storyteller, caretaker, and so many more. People who aren’t moms can feel burnt out about their jobs and get to take time off when they need it, so why shouldn’t you as a mother?
You Will Remember Who You Are
It’s no secret that many moms feel as though they lose a part of themselves when they have kids. It’s normal to feel a little lost when that happens, as well as mourn the person you once were. That being said, it’s hard to figure out who you are post-kids if you’re constantly working on other problems and taking care of other people. By going on a momcation, you allow yourself to have time to discover who you are. You can decide what you do and don’t like, what activities you enjoy, and how you like to relax. Finally having that time can do wonders for your mental health and your sense of self.
You’ll Get a Chance for Relaxation and Rejuvenation
When you take care of tiny humans, there’s rarely any time for relaxation and rejuvenation. Even if you take an hour or so every day for yourself, it still isn’t enough. With a momcation, you can spend a week doing nothing but relaxing. Want to spend an entire day sleeping in a comfy bed? Do it! Want to enjoy meals cooked by someone else? That’s part of the deal! There are so many ways to relax, decompress, and recharge, you’ll likely come back from your trip feeling like a whole new person.
