The CK Daily – Relaxing & Recharging
Good Morning & Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and is feeling a little refreshed after some time off and lots of good food!
I tried to take some time to slow down over the break and really live in the moment. Life is so busy these days that I had almost forgotten how to just be still and enjoy each moment for what it is. I’m always thinking about the next thing that needs to be done, trying to stay on schedule, and trying to be productive in some way at all times. While it’s great to have a high level of productivity, I’m learning that our bodies and minds need breaks. I’ve found myself over-tired and overwhelmed a lot lately so I made an intentional decision to allow myself to relax over the break.
I spent more time on the couch over the weekend than I had all year combined! I let myself lounge in pajamas, didn’t worry about what time it was, and even took a nap! It was much-needed rest, but what I found was that I actually was able to be even MORE productive with the rest. I spent a lot of time in the kitchen cooking yummy Thanksgiving dishes, cleaning out the attic, and even organizing my closet… and none of it felt stressful!
Thankful for the break and time to recharge!
