When was the last time you found time for play. It's not about age, it's about finding peacefulness and your center. Whether it's board games, going for a walk in nature or playing a team sport. Enjoy the music that makes you happy! When was the lastime you just foussed on just being!
Find what makes you happy, take a break from social media and cell phones. Soak into silence and take time to enjoy the quiet. When was the last time you spent time with family and just had fun being silly. It can be hard when your used to the stresses of corporate life.
Give yourself permission to take a mental health day or three. Take time to go hiking or camping. Go to a bed and breakfast and tour or see new places. Go sliding down a hill minus the trees this winter. Paint a picture or draw. Go to a movie and enjoy all of it.
If your out in nature, drink in all of it. It will bring peace to your soul. Smell that earthy smell of fall, from those fallen leaves. If cooking or baking is your jam, then enjoy the process. Knitting, embroidery, turn on your favorite music, light a candle and get your cider or hot cocoa and get cozy.
Play with your pets, it will help both of you release pent up stress. Pets are a joy, they welcome us when we come home. They love unconditionally!
