Special Episode of Shelly's Shares: Be In The Moment, A Mom's Lesson From A Baseball Field
from Words of Wellness with Shelly · host Shelly Jefferis
Send us Fan MailThe moment I saw my two sons walk toward each other after the game and hug, I felt time stop and speed up at the same time. One of them was on the field as a Division I player. The other was there as a coach. Same conference, same weekend, same family, and a reminder: presence is not a luxury, it’s a wellness practice.I share the story of how our baseball journey led us here, from college recruiting to unexpected career turns, and what it’s like as a parent to watch your kids step into their own lives. That weekend wasn’t just about wins and losses. It was about family memories, gratitude, and the kind of emotional well-being that comes from being fully there, even when travel is costly and schedules are packed.We also talk about the sneaky mindset trap that pulls us out of the moment: “should” thinking. The pressure to be more productive, to do more, to catch up, to check the next box. I explain how I catch myself doing it, why it drains our mental health, and how choosing mindfulness in the present moment helps us feel more joy and less guilt. If you’ve been craving better work-life balance, a calmer mind, and more meaning in everyday life, this message will land.If the story resonates, subscribe to Words of Wellness, share it with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a rating and review so more people can find these wellness reminders.
