The Importance of Taking a Break

Do you ever work so hard that you reach the point of exasperation, overwhelm or exhaustion?  Those of you who know me, will certainly know I do this.  The last couple of weeks have been really full, with lots happening.  I came to the weekend and sat down to write this blog and was reminded of the importance of taking a rest in order to re-charge and replenish. So instead of writing my usual long blog I decided to take the dog for a walk.  There is nothing like a walk outside in nature and the fresh air to recharge those tired batteries and the dog enjoyed it too.  

So this week I am going to suggest because you don't have a long blog to read you have some extra time to do something to help you refresh and recharge.  You might want to 

• Listen to music
• Go for a walk 
• Meditate
• Do some stretches 
• Sit quietly 
• Garden 
• Lie in the sun 
• Swing in a hammock
• Give yourself a massage 
• Sing 

Do whatever brings you joy.  Have fun.
Taking the time to fill our own well allows us to keep being able to give to others and makes us a lot nicer to be around
