Being a mum is the most rewarding, and the busiest, job in the world. Between the school run, work, household chores and everything in between, time for yourself is the first thing to go. Small, repeatable rituals are the answer: they take minutes, not hours, and they add up. Here are seven that busy mums swear by, and how CBD products can fit into them. (CBD products are for adults and are not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding.)
1. Claim the First Ten Minutes of the Day
Before anyone else is up, make a coffee and drink it sitting down. If coffee is your ritual, our organic CBD coffee makes it your CBD routine too, with 10 mg of CBD per cup.
2. Keep a Spray in Your Bag
Our Mood Oils come in pocket-sized spray bottles, so a quick spray of peppermint Focus between errands or before sitting down to work is a two-second ritual that travels with you.
3. Take a Proper Tea Break
A pot of hemp tea, brewed properly and drunk while it is still hot, is a small act of rebellion against a busy day. Try Lemon and Ginger in the afternoon.
4. Stretch After the Bedtime Routine
Carrying little ones and bending over baths is hard on the back and shoulders. Five minutes of stretching once the kids are down, with a CBD muscle rub massaged into tired shoulders, is a lovely way to switch off.
5. Make the Bath a Ritual, Not a Rush
When you get the chance, turn a bath into an occasion: candles, a book, and a CBD massage oil with lavender and ylang-ylang afterwards.
6. Mark the End of the Day
An evening routine helps the day feel finished. Screens off, a caffeine-free chamomile hemp tea and a spray of Relax Mood Oil is a simple signal that it is your time now.
7. Keep It Simple on the Hardest Days
Some days there is no time for any of the above. On those days, a CBD gummy or capsule keeps your routine consistent with nothing to prepare. See our gummies and capsules.
Conclusion
Self-care for busy mums is not about big gestures; it is about small rituals kept consistently. CBD products from GOGO Green Organics, made with organic hemp and independently lab-tested, can be an enjoyable part of those rituals. Follow the guidance on each label, and speak to your GP before using CBD if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication.
