Quite often hear the complaints of others – they’re too busy, have more obligations than can be dealt with, work/kids/family put too many demands upon them. Unfortunately, I hear this all too often. We’re so over-burdened that we feel we must run on the hamster wheel as fast as we can, and if we slow down we’ll get bumped off.
We can’t remain at such a pace without depleting our energy sources. When our spiritual, physical, emotional and mental reserves are met, the only thing we are capable of doing is recharging our batteries, so-to-speak. It happens whether we want it or not because spirit knows what is needed. Either we take time for ourselves or we’re put into a situation where we must take the time.
We all know when we’re about to hit that proverbial brick wall. Some of us are masters at playing with that level of burden; moving up to the wall, then backing off a bit, thus saving ourselves from hitting the wall. From personal experience and love I say this… Take time for yourself – no phone, no work, no computer unless you’re playing games, stay in your pajamas all day, take a much needed nap, etc. As much as you say to yourself these things are highly unlikely, “Who has the time?” I urge you to have a “Me” day, one where you can do anything you like, and has nothing to do with an obligation. Replenish your energetic stores – you’ll be glad you did.
