Sometimes I manage to get so wrapped up in my "To Do" and "Things That (I Think) REALLY REALLY Need To Get Done" lists that I forget to just relax. We all do. Today is one of those days where the stresses of every day life just pile up on top of me and I feel like crumbling. Almost as though I've been on auto-pilot for the past 2 weeks and forget to feel things haha
Today I'm allowing myself a break. I plan on enjoying my anniversary with my sweet mister (dating anniversary!), and playing baseball with my little dude in the park. I'm not doing myself (or anyone for that matter) any favors by pushing forward when I've hit a wall.
Whether it's today, tomorrow or a week down the road, if you're feeling stressed or "over it", treat yourself well and take a break. Sometimes all it takes is one afternoon of carefree action. Reading a book, taking a walk, whatever. Here's to hoping it amps me up for tomorrow and reminds you to treat yourself. :)

ditto! just keep saying: Relax. You are enough. You have enough. You do enough. Self: Please remember this.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this lovely little reminder - it was exactly what I needed to read!

I refer to days like that as mental health days...sometimes a fever isn't the only kind of sick day to take!
ReplyDeleteThis is something I definitely need to remember. I have finals coming up--and afterwards, a relaxation day is a must! :)
ReplyDeleteUgh if only i could put this into action now but finals are a foot and i can not even think in terms that are not scholarly accepted by my teachers :(
ReplyDeleteBut it will end and when it DOES OH the fun i shall have! Can't wait for days of being enough!
I need to do this for myself wihout guilt.
