Sandwich Generation: Everyone Gets A Bite

Sandwich Generation: Everyone Gets A Bite

You’re spending your forties taking care of your mom and your kids. Between getting her to her chemo treatments and doctor appointments, then shuffling the kids to soccer, dance, and piano lessons, you are beyond tired. But one way or another, you know you have to keep going, so you find a way to keep pouring yourself out to others. The problem is that eventually, your cup, the cup you pour from, will be empty.

You must find ways to care for yourself as well as you care for others or you will burn out. There are several ways you can take some time out to recharge your batteries:

  • Meditate: Begin including a few minutes of meditation in your daily routine (we like this app for meditation guidance.) This practice can help you clear your mind, focus, become calm, and emotionally level.
  • Take Time to Move. It doesn’t have to be a tough HIIT class or Soul Cycle. You don’t even need to go to a gym. Find a yoga program on YouTube or your streaming provider. Take a half hour in the morning to go for a walk and breathe in the fresh air.  Take a dance class you’ve always been interested in but never had a chance to learn.

…Or, Get an Infusion

If taking the time to meditate and move aren’t enough to give you the energy to get through your week, let alone each day, you may need outside help.  An IV infusion from Drip Drive may be exactly the thing you need to jump start your routine and mental clarity. The infusions we offer for energy and general wellness are specially compounded and full of vitamins to help you get your mojo back.
