How to turn your Overwhelm into Calm

1 Simple Trick

Feel less stressed with this one simple trick

The workload of a busy mum can feel overwhelming. Having a child introduces heaps of new tasks we need to take care of, while we still have to take care of most of the tasks from before we had a baby.


Mums often feel overwhelmed with the amount of tasks they have to do. Fortunately, there is one simple trick to alleviate the stress of this overwhelming workload and to effectively manage our tasks.


The simple trick that will help us manage our workload is the 80:20 rule. In case you haven’t come across it, the goal of the 80:20 rule is to identify the tasks that are the most productive and make them a priority. 80% of your results come from 20% of your efforts.


In other words, there are a Vital Few tasks (20%) that produce the majority of the benefits (80%). Conversely, there are the Trivial Many tasks (80%) that produce only the Trivial Few results (20%).


There are three simple steps to using the 80:20 rule to manage our sense of overwhelm.


First, we need to accept that no mum is perfect. Be kind you yourself and ditch the guilt! Not every little task is going to get done, and that’s ok. Even if there are some tasks that don’t get done, the world is going to keep spinning. It is far more important that you manage your stress levels and spend some quality time with your baby.


Second, we need to assess at the tasks that make us so busy. Take a look at your To Do list. How much time does each task take? And how big of a result does each task provide? I bet you’ll quickly see a big disparity between the efficiency of the Vital Few tasks and the Trivial Many tasks.


Third, we need to separate the wheat from the chaff. We need to create a To NOT Do list, and we need to make that a home for our Trivial Many tasks. We need to reserve our To Do list for the Vital Few. We need to push any of our Trivial Many tasks onto the To NOT Do list.


We’re not saying that the things in our To NOT Do List aren’t important. We’re just saying that doing them right now is not more important. We’re not saying the things in our To NOT Do List aren’t going to be done. We’re just saying that we’re not going to do them now.


Which tasks we decide to put in which list is subjective, so it is going to be different for everyone. Here's an example:



If you’re feeling overwhelmed by your workload, why not try applying the 80:20 rule yourself?


Where in your life can you push away the Trivial Many tasks? Where can you focus your limited time on the Vital Few tasks? How can you free up time for the important things in life? How can you free up time for YOU? How can you free up time to spend with your little ones?


What do you think? Has this been useful to you? Have you been able to move some of YOUR Trivial Many tasks onto your To NOT Do list? .

I used to pump 160mls and now I average 240mls .. I've never been able to get that."

""I discovered In Shape Mummy Health Shakes not long after my second baby was born. He has an intolerance to dairy so I was looking to find something that was safe for breastfeeding, and also vegan friendly. I have recently started a detox program with the help of a naturopath. She was so impressed with the ingredients that she has encouraged me to continue having it! In Shape Mummy has not only helped me lose weight, but it’s helped me nourish my body when I’ve been time poor and sleep deprived. It’s the only shake that I actually enjoy the taste of! My breakfast everyday includes ice, almond milk, water, a banana and my In Shape Mummy (my current fave is the caramel fudge!). At 11 months postpartum I feel great! And my breastfeeding journey is still going strong - my milk is in perfect supply for what Bub needs. I cannot recommend In Shape Mummy Health Shakes more highly!”

"I am so grateful for all the people behind the In Shape Mummy Health Shake. It has helped me lose my post-pregnancy weight in a healthy way and very helpful during days where I had to wake up early for school drop offs and going to work. I've lost 15 kgs and I couldn't be any happier. I've regained my energy and have lots of time to play with my 2 kids. It's breastfeeding-friendly which is even better for me because the nutrients this Healthy Shake has is good for my little one. I feel great and motivated to work out even more when I saw my results. I'm so in love with this Healthy Shake!!! Thanks to Lisa and the rest of their team. ♥️"

"I've lost 31.5 kgs thanks to the In Shape Mummy Health Shakes. 110 kgs to 78.5 kgs! Juggling two little boys under 2 years old doesn't leave much time for healthy choices for Mummy and the In Shape Mummy Health Shake is such an easy solution to get all the goodness I need to keep going! My older son is 20 months and I didn't get the chance to lose the weight gained whilst carrying him before I was pregnant again with baby #2. I easily gained 40kgs across the two pregnancies and no thanks to terrible pelvic pain in pregnancy #2 wasn't able to keep active. Now that my second son is here and the pelvic pain has gone I have stuck to replacing breakfast with my shake and walking every morning for the duration of the morning sleep. Some days I will do a second shorter walk during his nap. I'm still able to enjoy yummy healthy foods and definitely do not feel like I'm going without. I no longer crave sugary foods as the shake sets me up for the day with its magical satisfying ingredients! The shake has become even more of a must since returning to work! If I thought I was busy before, life just got a whole lot busier! Now that I've lost the weight, I have more energy, zero aches and pains and have a better mood. I tell all my friends about In Shape Mummy because easy weight loss doesn't need to be a secret! Xx"

"I have lost over 30kg with In Shape Mummy Health Shakes, exercise and a complete diet change. ⁠⁠ I started at size 22 and am a loose size 12 at the moment… and nearly a 10! ⁠I feel so much better! With my injuries in my spine, pelvis and knee my weight loss has been the best thing for my pain. ⁠
7-8 months ago I couldn’t have even imagined I could drop this much weight! The change in my life has been insane! ⁠ My advice to other mums is “stick with it and don’t give up!” ⁠ Thanks so very much for your In Shape Mummy Health Shakes. They are the best thing for mums on the go and while breastfeeding as well. Words can not express how grateful I am with my weight loss. I couldn’t of started this without your shakes. My life is forever changed." ⁠
