10 Mother’s Day Gift Ideas For The Tired Mom
Before I was a mom, I’d imagine the beautiful, slow moments filled with joy and love. But I didn’t realize that while being a mom is a beautiful adventure, it’s also filled with moments that are HARD. Between the sleep deprivation and pressures of caring for young kids, tired moms need support in this season of their parenthood journey. While flowers or candy may be your go-to gift, I wanted to provide this list of 10 Mother’s Day Gift Ideas For The Tired Mom that puts more thought into what kinds of things mom really wants.
Organic Magnesium Lotion
Magnesium is vitally important to over 300 processes in our bodies, but very few of us get enough of it. Even those of us with an excellent, nutrient-dense diet are probably not getting enough magnesium. And when we’re stressed, we burn through magnesium at an accelerated rate. So you can see, that just about every modern day person is in need of some kind of additional magnesium!
2. Zenimal + Mama Bundle
A collection bundle built for the mamas to help build self-love and resilience. Zenimal+ is a super portable, screen-free way to develop a mindful meditation practice. I listen to my Zenimal every night as I helps me fall asleep faster. It also has tracks that act as a quick reset during the day when I have tough moments.
