It’s been a while! I don’t about you but don’t you find it so easy to slip back into being super busy?
I (probably like lots of you) say to myself that Its okay to not be busy, not to feel like you have to fill every minute but then when I stop and have that break there’s a little guilt that I’m wasting precious time! (Or if I’m totally honest stop and fall asleep – my infamous nan- nap that can eat into 2 hours if I’m not careful) Have you ever done that or feel this way? I do think if i nod off it’s because the rest is needed, it’s my body crying out for me to just stop! (I don’t fight it but honestly as I work full time I can’t just nod off when I feel like it… that’d be interesting!!) Talking of wasting time I have a face mask that has a 10 minute timer on it and rather than put it on, watch tv (not easy with a face full of red light) and try AND try to drink my tea (because I’ve just GOT to make every second count) I have started to just lie down with it on and not do anything. Nothing. Nada. It’s really nice, I just day dream for a few minutes and give myself permission to do nothing.
I think so many of us don’t even give ourselves 10 minutes do we?!
So, maybe this week set a timer for 10 minutes. No phone or tv or anything and just ponder. You deserve that 10 minutes. Ponder on,
