Book Description:



Mental labor, or the mental load, involves the many — and extremely
varied — tasks that are involved in managing a household and/or
workplace. This topic has exploded over the past couple of years,
especially for women. As stated in an October 2017 Washington Post
article, “The constant stress of trying to stay organized — and to
remember to execute so many tasks every single day — is affecting
women's relationships with their spouses, children, friends, and
colleagues. They are experiencing mental, emotional, and physical
fatigue trying to stay on top of it all.”



Lighten Your Mental Load shares real stories of what
this load is like for both men and women across the globe and how it
originated. It offers practical advice on how to lighten this burden
through technology and other methods in the following areas:

• Home

• Shopping and Meals

• Marriage/Partners

• Children

• Pets

• Transportation

• Career

• Birthdays, Celebrations, Holidays, and Vacations

• Volunteering, Church Activities, and Hobbies

• Caregiving

• Retirement



Finally, the book discusses ways to not add to the mental load of others
and how we can more evenly distribute the mental labor between both
sexes for future generations.
