A few months ago, I wrote a blog about knowing when to take a break and that I’m not always that great at knowing when I need one or allowing myself to do so. I also made a commitment that I would be willing to do this in the future and that is what I am doing today and have been doing the past few days.
Taking a break is a choice and not always an easy one to make, but sometimes it’s the best one for us.
I haven’t been feeling well the past few days and have allowed myself to take a break and stay in bed and do nothing. Knowing today is the day I typically post a blog, it has been hard for me to let it go and decide that I am choosing to take a break instead. My body, mind and spirit all are calling for rest and relaxation.
So, yes, I still posted something and didn’t completely stay off the computer, but I’m taking baby steps here and this is still taking a lot less time and energy than it normally would.
Hoping you all had a safe and Happy New Year and I hope that you all can see when you need to take a break and will be willing to give yourself that gift as well in the future.
