If
you’re used to putting others first, it’s hard to put yourself at the top of
your priority list, but everybody needs to recharge their battery.
Healthy Habits For a Happier You!
SPEND SOME TIME WITH YOURSELF
Why
Make Time
Taking
time may at first blush seem selfish, but other people benefit from your “me
time” too. Consider this, me time has both psychological and physical benefits.
You’ll feel refreshed, be happier and have more patience. You’ll have an improved frame of reference
and when you’re thinking more clearly, you make better decisions. Avoid being a grump, taking a little time
for yourself boosts your mental wellbeing and can improve your mood and energy
level.
How
Much Time
Give
yourself a half an hour a day, even if you have to break it up into two fifteen
minute increments. Schedule it, put it on your “to do” list, whatever you have
to do to make it happen, every day.
How
to Use it
Here’s
the fun part because the possibilities are endless! Enjoy a cup of your
favorite beverage, look at a beautiful piece of art, listen to your favorite
music, meditate, take a walk, read a book, sit in the sunshine, keep a journal,
count your blessings,… The point is to
do what refreshes and re-energizes you.
