Each and every day can be jammed packed with things to do, places to go, deadlines to achieve! Our energy can be drained from so many people and places needing our attention. Life can become stressful, tiring and out of balance trying to achieve all that needs to be done. Simple things can become luxuries such as sipping a drink in peace with no distractions. Often we put ourselves at the bottom of our priority list even though we know how good we feel from just having that few moments for ourselves. Self care isn’t selfish, it is important for our well being.
Time out to disconnect from your phone, emails, and the people around you, will allow you to reconnect with yourself, and you will feel in a better place to carry on with your day and all it brings. Let’s start to disconnect to reconnect! Here are some ideas to get you started, many of them can be enjoyed in under 10 minutes.
- Sip a drink in peace
- Practice some mindfulness
- Have a quick yoga or meditation practice
- Say some positive affirmations using your mala
- Walk outside alone
- Light a candle, take some deep breaths
- Read a magazine/book
- Write in a gratitude journal
- Listen to some of your favourite music
- Go outside, relax in your garden
Enjoy and journey within…
Namaste
