Moving? Sick? No way! Moving is one of the top three most stressful life experiences along with death and divorce. Therefore, your poor body will be under some intense pressure and your immune system may end taking it for the team for only so long. Mind you, I am no medical professional but I’ve moved enough myself and helped many to know that you need to take care of yourself.
It’s hard. I know. The impending deadlines sneak up on you. You’re burning the candle at both ends trying to pack, run errands and finish on time. However, your body can only take so much punishment, before it will let you know in some way. It’s been after my own most stressful moves, that I have found myself so sick.
After being nurse maid to my three boys who had the flu last week, this is fresh in my mind. So my mom-self is coming out to remind you that in the hustle and bustle, take time to rest and care for yourself. It’s when your tired and worn down, you are most likely to hurt yourself or get sick. Give yourself grace because if you’re hurt or sick, you’re not moving anywhere…
