Win $100 GNC GC because May is Mental Health Month

As moms, we need to be on top of everything in not only our lives but in the lives of our families as well. It's up to us for the most part to provide a clean, comfortable home and make sure there are healthy, delicious meals on the table (or at least a house that's livable and meals that are edible depending on your day). We manage everyone's schedules and keep things running smoothly. We are the keeper of lost keys and the finder of lost sports equipment.

All of this can put a strain on your mental health and can result in stress, depression, low energy or problems with sleep and relaxation. If we don't take care of ourselves, how are we going to be expected to take care of our families? You have got to make sure that your own health is a top priority and that includes your mental health. Nobody likes a cranky, overworked mom!

One of the ways that we can take care of ourselves is by eating properly and getting daily exercise. Exercise for the day might be something as simple as running after your toddler or you might luck out and actually get some quiet time at the gym or a few minutes access to the Wii Fit. Another important way we can take care of ourselves is by taking vitamins and supplements that address our individual needs.  I take a multi-vitamin daily to make sure I'm getting what I need to keep my body in the best of health.  It's also important to address specific areas of your life that you may need a little extra help with.  For me, that's stress. Who would have guessed?

GNC offers a huge selection of products for not only your general health but in my case, I can also find things to help with my stress level.   There's really a huge variety of items.  I had no idea GNC carried that many things.  I found supplements like SAM-e, Natural Calm Raspberry Lemon Drink, Masada Dead Sea Mineral Bath Salts and even a Stress Eraser! Yes, I need one of those!

I like the ease of shopping on the GNC site.  You can shop by condition/goal, by brand, or by ingredients.  There are many GNC physical locations as well.  I'm in and out of the one in our local mall all the time.  Check out their store locator to find one near you.
