Good evening, my dear friends at @ladiesofhive. Here I am again with my entry for your Ladies of Hive Community Contest #262. This time, our dear friend @joanstewart invites us to reflect on household responsibilities and mental health.

Muy buenas noches, mis queridas amigas de @ladiesofhive. Aquí estoy de nuevo ante ustedes con mi entrada para su Ladies of Hive Community Contest #262. Esta vez la querida amiga @joanstewart nos invita a reflexionar sobre las responsabilidades del hogar y la salud mental.

I'm starting by sharing the contest link so you know how you can participate too:

Comienzo compartiendo el link del concurso para que sepan como pueden participar ustedes tambien:

Okay, the initiative involves answering one or all of the questions posed to participate. In this case, the questions are:

  • Mental Health: Only around half of people describe their mental health as good, unable to switch off from work, etc. How do you cope in an ever-changing world?

  • Household responsibilities and care: In many homes, partner/spouse statistics reveal the woman continues with cleaning, childcare, assisting aged relatives, shopping for the home, with partner/spouse happy sharing finances. All except the last-mentioned category run "50%-and-above," where women tend to remain homemakers. How are things structured in your home?

Bien, la iniciativa consiste en responder una o todas las preguntas que se nos plantean para participar. En este caso las preguntas son:

  • Salud mental: solo alrededor de la mitad de las personas describen su salud mental como buena, con dificultades para desconectar del trabajo, etc. ¿Cómo te las arreglas en un mundo en constante cambio?

  • Responsabilidades y cuidados del hogar: en muchos hogares, las estadísticas de parejas/cónyuges revelan que la mujer continúa con la limpieza, el cuidado de los niños, la asistencia a los familiares mayores y las compras para el hogar, mientras que su pareja/cónyuge comparte los gastos con gusto. Todas las categorías, excepto la última mencionada, superan el 50%, donde las mujeres tienden a seguir siendo amas de casa. ¿Cómo se organizan las cosas en tu hogar?

To answer the first question, these days I take great care of my mental health, and to disconnect in such a rapidly changing world, I usually do two things I really enjoy that recharge my energy and give me the boost I need for my well-being.

One of them is going to the beach and sitting on the shore contemplating its immensity, while the breeze cools my face. I focus on the smells of the salt water, and if that doesn't work, I put my feet in the water for a while and connect with the sea until I calm down.

Para responder la primera pregunta, hoy en día cuido mucho mi salud mental y para desconectarme en un mundo tan cambiante, suelo hacer dos cosas que me gustan mucho y me recargan las energías que necesito para mi bienestar.

Una de ellas es irme a la playa y sentarme a la orilla del mar a contemplar su inmensidad, mientras que la brisa refresca mi rostro. Me concentro en los olores del agua salada y si eso no funciona, entonces meto mis pies en el agua un rato y conecto con el mar hasta calmarme.

I also disconnect when I cook. That's another activity I love to do, especially for my children. When I'm in the kitchen preparing to cook something delicious, I focus so much on the flavors and presentation of the food that I forget everything else.

Of course, I need help to do this; I can't do it alone. That's why I always have my kitchen assistants who help me chop everything very finely, and all I do is assemble, cook, and season.

También me desconecto cuando cocino. Esa es otra de las actividades que me encanta hacer sobre todo para mis niños. Cuando estoy en la cocina y me preparo para cocinar algo sabroso, me concentro tanto en los sabores y la presentación de la comida que se me olvida todo lo demás.

Por supuesto, para hacer esto necesito ayuda, no puedo hacerlo sola, por eso cuento siempre con mis asistentes de cocina que me ayudan a picar todo bien minudito y yo lo que hago es armar, cocinar y sazonar.

I'll answer the second question like this: I'm a stay-at-home mom after what happened to me. For those who don't know, I suffered a stroke, and my recovery has been slow but steady. Since I've been better, I've been given a new lease on life, which I don't intend to waste. That's why I'm focusing on taking care of the house and my children with the best attitude.

Financially, I receive help from my father and the father of my children, as well as from my older children. I also sell things like perfumes, makeup, cakes, and cookies, but that's mostly by order. Thank God, I have my family's help in that regard because after what happened to me, I can't go back to work.

La segunda pregunta la respondo de la siguiente manera: soy ama de casa después de lo que me sucedió. Para los que no lo saben, sufrí un ACV y mi recuperación ha sido lenta pero constante. Desde que estoy mejor, tuve una nueva oportunidad de vida que no pretendo desperdiciar, por eso me enfoco con la mejor actitud en atender la casa y mis niños.

Económicamente recibo ayuda de mi papá y del papá de mis hijos, así como de mis hijos mayores. También vendo cositas como colonias, maquillaje y tortas, galletas, pero eso es más por encargo. Gracias a Dios, cuento con la ayuda de mi familia en ese aspecto porque después de lo que me pasó, no puedo volver a trabajar.

Muy bien expresado tener tu rincón donde puedas relajarte y sacar el estrés me parece estupendo, a veces las actividades más simples nos complican la vida. Excelente aporte para el tema de la semana, desde la experiencia misma. Un abrazo

Well said! Having your own little corner where you can relax and de-stress is wonderful; sometimes the simplest things complicate our lives. Excellent contribution to this week's topic, based on personal experience. Hugs!

Good to hear you finding away around obstacles set before you, small things to relax help.

Getting to the beach is magical how relaxing this space becomes, pleasure in cooking with children assisting is how I learned growing up, this helps the family unite.
