Peace in Our Calendars and Routines

The Better Part - Intentional Living for Christian Moms with a Bible-Loving Catholic Mama

It is well known that those the number of decisions someone makes in the day is directly related to the amount of stress the undergo... How many decisions do you think you have to make as a mother? Probably more than the average Joe, I'd venture to guess! And a lot of those decisions you have to think out have to do with scheduling!

In this episode we break down three major things that bring us stress in our scheduling:

1. Decision making
2. Answering Questions
3. Rushing

And talk about tips to help out for each of these including:

• Syncing calendars with husband
• Weekly meetings to discuss the week ahead
• Writing a regular routine that is as detailed as possible to take away from regular daily decisions
• Being realistic about how long it takes to do each activity in the calendar and about how much it takes out of the family

I never want these tips to overwhelm, but to give ideas to you! Take what works and forget about the rest! If you need it later, trust that the Holy Spirit will bring it back to mind for you!

"Oh Jesus, I surrender myself to you. Take care of everything!"
