              Respect your body when it's

                      asking for a break

              Respect your mind when it's

                          seeking rest

              Honor yourself when you need

                     a moment to yourself

@Lindsays Grandma  You hit the nail on the head with these! I LOVE "Honor yourself when you need a moment to yourself". That should be my new mantra, because I am struggling to do just that.😁

@SandySparkles ...A word of advice, listen when your body speaks to you, so that a few years from now you won't regret that you didn't.  Heart

@Lindsays Grandma  You are so right! It's been difficult because so many people are needing emotional support, related to everything our country is currently facing. I am trying hard to always be available to them, but before I knew it, I was emotionally and physically exhausted!😐 

 

I am now trying to incorporate more "me" time into my sometimes hectic schedule. This message resonated with me for that reason.

 

I made personal time a priority in my life prior to this, and am definitely working on finding more opportunities now.😊

@Lindsays Grandma  You are speaking to me today, so thank you.  I got a concussion from being stupid over the weekend and have not worked out all week.  I was just thinking that I should cancel my personal training tomorrow but I need to get back to it.  Looks like I will cancel and wait another week.

The next time that I hear salt and ice together, it better be in a margarita!

@Lindsays Grandma 

 

I love this and so true. I should have heeded the rest for my body but I didn't. I had to go to Costco among other errands. I will rest tomorrow. Take care.
