Being a parent is amazing but we all know that sometimes you just need to take a minute to relax. How you choose to relax entirely depends on what you like to do whether it is by taking a bath, going for a walk or having a nice glass of red wine. If wine is your choice of relaxation, then you are not alone. Mums all over the world sit down at the end of a stressful day and have a glass of wine. This is why we have decided to come up with some reassuring reasons why wine is good for mums and dads even.
Parenting Is Stressful
Once you become a parent, your whole life revolves around making sure that your children are safe and where they are supposed to be at all times. This involves taking them to school, feeding them, going to many other children’s birthday parties and the difficult night-time routine. It is totally understandable that after a day full of stressful activities and thinking about everyone else to have a glass of wine. Wine can release the stress of your day and can help to make you feel better. Just don’t go overboard and drink the whole bottle!
Wine Tastes Great
Wine lovers know that the older the wine is, the better it tastes. So maybe the wine that you are drinking is one that you just bought from your local supermarket but there’s no reason why you shouldn’t enjoy a nice glass of fine wine now and again. Using a wine storage company like Octavian Vaults whose cellars are located 100 feet beneath the Wiltshire hills can really improve your wine tasting experience as wine should be preserved. If you’ve never heard about fine wine storage, then you should know that there are vaults that specialise in wine storage and keeping your wine in the best conditions possible. This means that you can store your more expensive bottles of wine in these vaults, so you won’t be tempted to pour yourself a glass after a long day of school runs. You’ll love the taste of the wine when you eventually take it out of the vintage wine storage and it will impress all of the other wine-loving mums!
Health Benefits
Although some of the research surrounding how good wine is for you is conflicting, it is good to remember that wine can be good for your health, in moderation. Wine can help to avoid food poisoning and can improve the function of the brain in older women! There is also some research that shows that the risk of clogged arteries is lower when some red wine has been consumed.
Although the health benefits may not be entirely conclusive, you’ll find that drinking a glass of wine every few days is not too harmful. If you need to destress after looking after your children all week then there is no reason why you shouldn’t pop open that bottle and enjoy a glass. Wine can be good for mums in moderation!
This sounds great, but there’s just one problem – wine never lasts long enough in my house to store it. Unless you count storing it in my belly..? 😉 x
Hell yeah that totally counts as storage 😉 xx
