Easy doodles... are they just a waste of time? Isn't it weird how so many adults post about doodling? Just search it on Pinterest.

How can bullet journal doodles benefit
Stay-at-home moms?

We agree that being a stay-at-home mom is a never-ending hard job.

You can quickly lose yourself attending to everyone's needs and forgetting your own. Ultimately resulting in burning yourself out. While we all love our children...

That's why it should be a priority to MAKE time for YOU!

So why should this precious time be spent doodling?

Doodles are a great time-out! You can do them while sitting with your kids or have them join in!

Keeping a whole house running smoothly and staying calm while doing it can be challenging to say the least.

This is where bullet journal doodles can be beneficial for stress relief and improved focus.

Spontaneous drawings may also relieve psychological distress, making it easier to attend to things.

So If you need to take a 'breather' from life... give doodling a try! (and it doesn't hurt to have prettier spreads in your bullet journal)

Another article worth reading: The Mental Health Benefits of Doodling, recalls:

5 benefits of doodling

• Relaxation- Being a stay-at-home mom is a full-blown job with little rest.
• Mood Regulation- Any mom knows how difficult it can be to do everything a family entitles whilst stay in a good mood.
• Memory Recall- With so many things to do and to keep up with. It can be hard to remember, let alone prioritize your tasks.
• Creativity and Authenticity - Being a mom can sometimes make you forget who you are as a person. Sparking your creativity can help you explore yourself and what you're capable of achieving. It's a form of self-expression.
• Problem-Solving - Taking time off and just relaxing is what you sometimes need to get you focused.
  In other words: take a break and doodle. It may be the answer to making you more productive.

What mom doesn't need these benefits in her life? I know I do.

By incorporating doodling into your bullet journal;

1. You organize all your thoughts on paper. To prioritize what tasks are most important.
2. You combine that with doodles to relax, take a time-out.
3. Can help you potentially be more focused and attentive to your kids with a better mood and a more relaxed and positive mindset.
