Before I was a mom, I used to spend a lot of time on self care. Weekends were for rejuvenation & relaxation. I put a lot of efforts for my health, skin, hair & spirit, but nowadays these efforts have considerably gone down. .
I really don’t have the time or energy to spend a lot of time on taking care of my beauty and personal care. Heck, there are data when I go around with chipped nail paint for days 🙈.
.
Though I would say, as my son is growing, it has slowly become a lot better. The first 2 years were the hardest. But after that, things have become a lot easier & they are getting easier by the day. Though I know I would never go back the my time in my 20s when all life demanded of me was eat, sleep, work, party & repeat with a lot of shopping 🛍 in between. But this time, these days are also very much precious to me ❤️. But coming back to self-care. So instead of long hours of Sunday self care, I have moved to more sustainable lifestyle altering changes in the past few years. Rigorous hours at the gym have been replaced by healthy eating & long walks. Food choices have become very sensible. And one major choice has been switching to more natural and healthy ingredients; both in the products I use externally & the things I eat/ drink.
.
An addition to this list has been this @tatateatulsigreen tea which I am making a habit of drinking daily. It is a natural healthy alternative to milk tea. Using it only since some time I can feel the difference from within. It has Ajwain & lemon which is a good way to detoxify, I can see a difference in my skin as it is clearer. The best part is I find the effects of Tulsi very calming on my nerves. I make it a point to drink it before bedtime nowadays. A huge plus point is that I love the taste & it’s not bitter.
.
Do try it & surely you will notice a difference. These small lifestyle changes may not show a drastic effect right away but I do believe that these are very good for our long term well being. Now I am gonna try to get hubby man to start drinking this tea too 😀.

This conversation legit happened some time back. My then yet to be 4 year old who is a diplomatic adult actually said this. The way he plays us is worth recording and playing back to him once he is older 😈.
.
So this is what happened some time back. We were trying (emphasis on trying) to put him to bed and as happens we have quite a looooot of conversations happening at that time, till finally we manage to put Tall A to bed 🤪. And then me and the baby continue the drama. .
But anyway, this is what he does, he goes all lovey dovey 🥰 and has us eating out of his hands and then BAM 💥 he throws a googly at us. We end up doing a double take and are left speechless and blabbering, he makes us do stuff too, I swear, like promise him stuff. .
This is what he said, legit! And had us wondering how the F do we handle this tiny diplomat.
.

Conversations with my 3 yo Adult while going to bed.
3 YO : I love you so much Mama & Daddy
Me: Awww we love you too
3 YO: I love you Coz you take care of me, and you buy me soo many things.
Now Sits up upright in a flash.
3 YO continues: but you guys didn’t buy me the pink bag, the panda bag, the alarm clock, the robot car...
Me: 😐😐😐
.
Do you handle such tiny diplomats too? Send some tips pls 🤨

We mothers have our plates more than full at any given point and my situation is similar. On any given day, I have loads of things to do, to do lists to finish and commitments which need to be honoured. And though it does feel great to be always going on but it does leave me drained and tired by the time I am ready to hit the bed. Well I have been taking a cup of the @tatateatulsigreen Tulsi tea at bedtime and it is so refreshing and soothing.
.
It has quickly become a night time favourite and I specially love it because it is not bitter at all. The cleansing effect of Tulsi is so calming on my nerves. I love to sit in peace for 5 mins and sip this cuppa before I hit the bed.
.
I have always loved tea and there was a time when I couldn’t function without cups of tea all day long. but slowly and steadily I have cut back on milk tea considerably and I hardly have it anymore. Instead I have replaced it with a healthier option of green tea. Which is detoxing and beneficial to overall health too.
.
I am now going to call it a night and go sip on my lovely cuppa and I would highly recommend you to give the Tulsi Green Tea by TATA Tea a try. You will be surprised with the taste. Do give it a try if you are looking for a healthy change to incorporate in your lifestyle. Happy tea time ☕️ .
