A Time for mom-Me

by Ms. Latina

Are you a Mommy in need of some “ME” time? Do you feel as if you are losing yourself because you give and give and give to everyone but yourself? Do you need want some time to reconnect with yourself? As a single Mom, I can tell you I do!

I love my sons dearly. They mean the world to me. I can’t imagine my life without them. However, I know that time away from them, does us all good. It allows me to recharge and to regroup so that I can be the best Mom possible.

Mia Redrick, Mom Stratergist and Author, understands our dilemma. She knows we want to be there for our family. She understands that some of us even feel guilty when we can’t. She also knows that many of us need that extra push to get us to schedule time for ourselves. That’s why she is teaming up with Panera Bread to offer TEN (10) Mom groups a special chance to get involved with a “A Time for mom-Me” group.

The selected groups will receive the following perks:

  • Free copy of Mia Redrick book titled, Time for mom-Me: 5 Essential Strategies for A Mother’s Self-Care
  • Complimentary beverages per scheduled group visits at your Neighborhood Panera Bread Bakery-Cafe.
  • Free online guided exercises to support your weekly self-care discussions.
  • Reserved seating at your Neighborhood Bakery-Cafe to gather and share with your TFMM group.

If you don’t have a group yet, no worries!  Just get one together and submit your application before Feb. 14, 2011.

Click HERE to create your own group and get some “mom-Me” time!

I put in an application for ten women. Should I win I would love to get a group of diverse NYC women together for this opportunity. Let me know if you want to be included in my group in a comment. Its not guaranteed but if I win, I’ll let you know!

Sprint LG Optimus S and Sprint ID Review
