Take it easy

Take it easy already! Have you given yourself the gift of time lately to do indulge yourself and do what you’d like to do rather than what you have to do?

So often, we feel guilty if we aren’t being productive in every waking moment. We never seem to give ourselves the opportunity for “plop time”, as a dear friend refers to it. Just plop down and take it easy for a bit. Read a book, take a nap, watch a movie, maybe some yoga or meditation, soak in the tub or just look out the window, whatever you find relaxing.

When you take it easy, do not allow room for guilt, or pressure or responsibility. Just let go of that need to be busy, crossing things off the “to do” list and allow all of  “you” to  just take it easy, it’s such a gift.  

Until next time,
