Key ingredient in rejuvenating yourself~
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged joy, rejuvenation, relaxation, sleep on April 22, 2010| Leave a Comment »
For the past couple of months I have been a bit stressed. Typically I handle my full plate fairly well, however it has slowly been having its way with me. I feel emotionally, spiritually and physically disconnected. My husband Roger is pretty good at noticing when I am off balance. He has seen first hand how much happier and at peace I am when I take time to meditate, exercise, journal and nurture myself. By the time evening rolls around, it is very easy to cuddle up and watch a good show. However, I have noticed that the more television I watch, the more disconnected I feel. So, Roger suggested I get rid of television a couple of nights a week and read a good book, journal or meditate. At first I pushed the idea aside, but the more I thought about it, the more I agreed it was something I needed to do. Having some quiet time to reflect on my blessings, journal my affirmations, or read a good book is truly food for the soul. Television is a great escape every now and then, but when it becomes mindless time spent, it truly depletes your spirit. I have read many books on happiness and positive psychology, and they also discuss the negative affects of television. Happy people know to turn the television off. So, my wish for all of you this week is to turn the television off for an evening or two, and get re-engaged with activities that fill your spirit.
