When every moment feels like it belongs to everyone but you…

Parenting doesn’t come with pause buttons, especially when you’re raising a neurodiverse child. You’re balancing therapy schedules, sensory needs, and endless to-do lists—often with barely enough time to eat, let alone recharge.

Sound familiar? You’re not alone. Parenting is a full-contact sport, and while you’re giving it your all, the reality is that you can’t pour from an empty cup. But here’s the good news: even the smallest moments of self-care can make a world of difference.

Quick and Creative Ways to Sneak in Self-Care

Here’s how to claim those precious moments of calm and joy—even in the middle of parenting chaos:

Why Bother With Self-Care?

Self-care isn’t just about feeling good in the moment—it’s a game-changer for your entire family:

• You’re Modeling for Your Kids: When they see you making time for yourself, they learn that self-care is essential, not selfish.
• A Happier You Means a Happier Home: Self-care reduces stress and boosts mood, creating a positive ripple effect for everyone in your family.
• It Builds Patience: A five-minute breather can be the difference between losing your cool or staying calm during meltdowns or endless questions.
• It Keeps You Healthy: Better sleep, less stress, and a stronger immune system mean more energy for the moments that matter.
• It Deepens Connection: When you’re recharged, you can be more present with your kids—and that’s a gift they’ll always feel.
