Mommy, are you getting enough of sleep? If not, better do it now. No to #sleepdisturbance

Why 7-8 hours of Uninterrupted Sleep is significantly important?

Simula maging nanay ako I really find it hard to sleep straight and undisturbed sleep, sobrang bonus or reward yan for me. In fact, yan ang yearning or greatest wish ko ang makatulog ng straight and as in fully charged.

It is not anymore a question why we people need to sleep. Which is inevitable naman na makatulog ang isang adult for so many reasons.

This is a true experience, I realized I am starting to feel weak and there is a significant changes in my body due to lack of sleep and hindi rin naman healthy ang sobra sa tulog because it can negatively impact our over all health and those concerns like diseases , gaining too much weight and can even cause an early death.

It helps when we sleep completely undisturbed and masarap sa pakiramdam kasi it’s like we are charging fully just like ang mga battery right? Reasons are:

  • Napapanatili nito na palakasin ang immune system natin. If you don’t have enough sleep, wala karin enough cytokines to keep you from getting sick. Isama mo pa ang ibang antibodies mo na pwedeng ma-reduce overtime
  • Nasusubaybayan nito ang hunger level ng isang tao. Dama ko ang hunger lalo pag deprived ako sa pagtulog, kasi yung mga braincells pala natin nagsend ng signal para maglabas ng chemicals which leads to eating more. What if you don’t have any activities or exercises all the more ang pag gain mo ng weight.
  • Napapanatili ang magandang memorya. Nakakatulong ang kumpletong tulog sa pag strengthen ng memorya at nakakapagisip tayo ng maayos and staying focus. Lalo na sa creative thinking, memory processing.
  • Mas less prone tayo sa mga diseases. Gaya ng obesity, heart diseases and kung ano ano pa kasi nga nagiging mahina ang immune system.

How can you help yourself establish a good sleeping habit kahit nanay o tatay kana? Guilty ako dito pero we need to practice these things talaga.

Have a regular exercise at home. If you cannot go to the gym, youtube these days are helpful para sa mga zumba videos or pang cardio dance. Maximize ang use ng internet 🙂

Stay away from any stimulants few hours before you sleep like chocolate, coffee (which is guilty ako) , carbonated drinks.

I-schedule mo ang sleep mo and stick with it. Sundin mo ang schedule to make sure you can establish sleep and awake cycle.

Make sure comfortable ang bed at and environment mo. Use diffuser oils for you to feel relax and makakatulong din ang medyo malamig na lugar. I agree mas mabilis ako makatulog sa aircon haha 🙂 and with relaxing music and soothing oil blends, super wow 🙂

Discipline yourself and don’t be a stubborn sa mga routines na gagawin mo kasi ikaw din ang magbebenefit niyan lalo’t may anak ka. Walang sense yung mga nasabi ko sa taas if matigas ang ulo mo and not following routines haha.

Change your lifestyle na if you want to live longer and para din yan sa mga anak mo.

Hope these helps mommies, please do visit my blog page kung gusto niyo tumawa, ma-inspire and everything. 🙂

Creating an email for my children – one of my way of saving their memories

by // // No Comments

I meant to document every major and little things for my children. Yet they when they are baby I have no time to do it and it is really impossible to keep it up.

I know it’s not too late. I started creating one for my daughter and starting to send her messages.

What’s the point of creating an email?

I want her to remember those memories that might she forget when she grows up. I think sending those stuff on her email will be a memorable one.

And I know Diana won’t forget those hurtful things happening around us yet I wanted to let her know that they are always loved and that will not changed.

I am starting to flood her email her achievements and memories that she will never forget. So does my two boys!

What can we send them?

Their school achievements

Every First that they have, though we have this on our photo album (digital days already)

18th and 21st birthday

Their happiest pictures and memories

Love letters from us parents that someday they will be able to read.

Aside from photo albums, how do you keep memories mommies? 🙂

Please always make sure children are guided as well 🙂

Prior investing mutual fund, you need to have these:

Long term goals, funds or pera – primary requirement for you to maximize your earning. Kaalaman – do the research and learn the basic of investing into mutual fund, this link may help.

Before opening an account, you need to know where to invest — they have Money Market Funds, Balanced, Bond Funds and Equity funds. Mine is always into equity kasi mas malaki ang value niya and sa stocks ko siya invested.

Why consider investing into Mutual Fund?

Most of us wants financial freedom and let’s admit somehow we are looking for an investment that we can gain profit. Ang isang investor ay pwede kumita from Mutual Funds sa pamamagitan ng interest, dividends, and even asset appreciation. Kung maganda ang performance ng fund at nag-go-grow siya definitely pag binenta ng investor ang shares niya, meron na siyang profit.

Investing into mutual funds can help your money grow significantly. Do it now while you earn. Start it now. And when you started it think long term para kumita ka.

I knew someone na anlaki na ng gain niya sa stocks. Kasi kahit ako somehow kumikita naman na. Hindi man ganon kalaki pero hindi ko sya kikitain sa bank deposit. 

Sobrang bilis ng panahon. Ganito kasi yun the longer you invest your money, chances of greater earnings. Kaya investing sa mutual fund is a great move and way to prepare for your retirement and kung meron kang long term dreams.

Pero you must understand na when investing hindi siya parang magic na instant ang paglaki ng pera mo. Maging mapanuri ka rin sa company na papasukan mo ng mutual funds, know their financial backgrounds and historical performances.

I suggest downloading the app so you can see your earnings na rin. Just like below.

Did I convince you na ba? And because I want to share and be a blessing to others na makapag-start.

Fairy Skin’s Derma Facial Set Review

by // // 8 Comments

It’s time to love myself! I barely wear make up whenever going out unless it would be a very elegant event to attend to.

As we age, our skin naturally becomes drier and flaky. So be sure to be hydrated and use daily moisturizers. But me as a mom who is a budget conscious, I find it not reasonable to buy branded facial skincare set yet I am just doing it naturally.

Thankful to a friend who asked me to try this product named, Fairy Skin Derma Facial Set.

About the product:

Fairy Skin Derma Facial Set is use for the treatment and prevention of severe cases of melasma, pimples, blackheads and whiteheads by penetrating pores to reduce break-outs, eliminate acne-causing bacteria, and remove dead skin cells. It whitens dark spots, blemishes and other discoloration such as freckles and age spots to achieve younger-looking skin.

Facial toner and Derma soap
Sunblock Cream Gel and Brightening Cream

Direction For Use:

  1. Derma Soap. Use in the morning and at night as your daily cleanser. Apply to damp face and lather for 10-20 seconds before rinsing and pat dry with a clean towel.
  2. Derma Facial Toner. Place a small amount of Fairy Skin Derma Facial Toner on a swab of cotton and spread evenly on your face and neck with upward motion. Use twice daily for a month.
  3. Brightening Cream. After using the toner, apply Fairy Skin’s cream evenly on your face and neck with upward motion. Use once a day preferably before bedtime for 1 month.
  4. Sunblock Cream. Use Fairy Skin’s sunblock cream during day time and best results while using the toner and cream for added protection during the expoliation process. Best applied 30 minutes before going out with sun exposure.

What To Expect?

Expect rough and flaky skin after a few days of using the product. At first, I panicked. But, it was really part of the expoliation thing which means it does removes dead skin cells and renewing my skin. See photo below:

After 2 days of using Fairy Skin Derma Set. Nag peel na sya.
And continues ang pag peel niya daily.

Final Say:

Sobrang hapdi siya first 2 weeks but all worth the peeling. I stopped using different creams pa muna while using it and let my skin breathe and expoliate and not even using make up. You should expect changes or results after 2 weeks. Also while using those creams eh pagpapawisan ang face mo parang oily pero pag gising mo sobrang light and fresh ka.

No kidding ang ganda ng effect niya sakin after a month of using it. My friends even noticed and find me blooming. See below photo collage. No filter yan đŸ˜±

Less eye bags or puffy eyes 😍 mahirap talaga pawalain yan masyado loyal 😂
After 2 months of continuous use 😍

Ang tanong! Mahal ba siya? Fairy Skin Derma Facial Set is just P300.00. Now lang ako na- satisfy sa isang product.

Pero please note din ha know your skin type prior using any facial products kasi minsan mas nakaka damage pa siya ng face. Believe me, ako ang taong sobrang takot sumubok ng kahit na anong skin products and yet natuwa naman ako sa unang pagkakataon eh maganda ang result.

I will continuously use Fairy Skin kasi it gives me glowing and radiant skin. But also remember na holistic dapat ang pagpapaganda. Keep yourself hydrated, importante din na nakakapag work out ka kahit 30mins a day kasi it will help na maging mas glowing pa ang skin mo.

Ito po si Mommy Heart na nagiiwan ng isang encouragement and enlightement.

We should practice self-care. Self-care can also award us with several health benefits too, including improving our immunity, increasing our positive thinking and mindset, and making us less susceptible to stress and other similar emotional health issues.

“Give yourself love, attention and care that you give to others and watch yourself bloom. And never forget that learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all”.
