Stress is caused by being here but wanting to be there.
Eckhart Tolle
R and R tip # 91: YOU DESERVE A BREAK TODAY
If you have ever felt brain dead, burned out, stressed or or just plain worn out, then you deserve a break today. You need more than a quick and easy break, you need a deep quality break. You need a time of rest relaxation and rejuvenation.
If we pause for a brief moment and briefly forget all that we have to do. If we can pause for those few moments and forget everything. We will then make a surprising discovery, that the world actually goes on without us. This means that all we do and all our rushing about is not as important as we imagine. If we can realize this, that the world will actually go on without us, a healing process begins. We begin to relax. We realise that the most important thing is just being ourselves. We are at peace. Even our dreams are put to rest.
If you love something, set it free.
When we free ourselves of everything that weighs us down, we have to love ourselves enough to release any notions that we should have been different or should have acted differently in the past. We can relax and renew ourselves in a comfortable and nourishing environment. For some it may be time spent in reflection. Others will turn to calming activities that help them remember their purpose, such as journal writing, being in nature or studying. Grant your self permission to relax and savor the stillness.
Remember the old adage that When one foot walks, the other rests
Our bodies have a natural inclination to rest. We need to keep that balance going so that we don't stumble and fall. Take a well deserved break! Keep balance in your life. You will be so much better for it and the effects will reach out to those around you
Relax, Max. Make time each day to do absolutely nothing. When we are on the go every hour of the day, we wear ourselves out mentally, physically, and emotionally. Allow yourself enough break time each day to unwind and relax.
Love, Live, Laugh and Be Happy!
