Work, Play, Recharge: Creating a Summer That Works for You
Summer is a time of possibility—longer days, warm evenings, and the perfect opportunity to strike a balance between productivity, fun, and rest. But let’s be honest: for those of us with school-age kids, they may get six weeks holiday….but we don’t!
Current POV: Sitting here in my home office working whilst my two boys are gaming in their rooms. Yes, I get them out when I can, but it’s a battle…and one I have limited time and energy to fight every day. As a founder of Eir Women, the show must go on.
As women, we’re often juggling work, family, and everything in between, so summer can feel less like a holiday and more like a marathon.
How do you create a summer that feels full and fulfilling without burning out? It’s all about finding harmony between work, play, and the recharge you deserve. Here’s how to make this summer your most balanced yet—with a little help from Show Up and Reboot.
Energize Your Day with Show Up
My go-to every single morning. Coffee with Revival, and Show Up.
Show Up is designed to help you meet daily challenges with sustained energy and focus. Its key ingredients include:
- Chasteberry: Supports oestrogen hormone levels and helps alleviate perimenopause and PMS symptoms such as anxiety, irritability, and sleep disturbances.
- American Ginseng: Traditionally used to enhance brain health and energy levels, aiding the body in adapting to stress and supporting adrenal gland health.
- Ginkgo Biloba: Improves attention span and focus, contributing to overall brain health.
- B Vitamins: Designed to help you tap into those energy reserves effectively.
Incorporating Show Up into your morning routine can provide the necessary boost to navigate busy schedules, ensuring you remain productive and engaged throughout the day.
Unwind Evenings with Reboot
After active, and sometimes shouty days, it's essential to allow your body and mind to relax and rejuvenate. Reboot is formulated to promote restful sleep and alleviate stress, featuring:
- Ashwagandha (KSM66): An adaptogen known for reducing anxiety and stress, enhancing brain function, and improving sleep quality.
- Passionflower: Decreases the time taken to fall asleep and supports healthy sleep patterns by calming the mind and relieving tension.
- Magnesium: Assists in muscle relaxation, addressing issues such as muscle tension and restless legs.
Taking Reboot in the evening can help ease you into a peaceful night's sleep, allowing you to wake up refreshed and ready for the day ahead.
Achieving Balance
I know I’ll never truly get there, but by integrating Show Up and Reboot (Duo) into my daily regimen, I feel at least a little more in balance. I can be energized during the day and enjoy restorative sleep at night, and hopefully I’ll eventually get out to fully embrace the vibrancy of summer.
