Today is a day that you should give yourself a break In a previous post I wrote about having yourself a "Day of Nothingness." It is being able to reset, relax and unwind. You need time to tune out the world and try to think about nothing at all. Is it meditative? Absolutely. It is nice to put the world on the shelf and 'check-out' for a little while. You could spend the entire day in you PJ's eating ice cream right out of the container, as long as you have stopped all from coming in and disturbing your perfectly good day of doing nothing, you're good.
When I reset, I find that my mind is clearer, my attitude shifts and my general outlook on life improves substantially. There is SO much noise that we are bombarded with on a daily basis it is not surprising that people are becoming overwhelmed and face many mental health crisis's throughout their lives. My days of nothingness are usually comprised with a hot beverage, a book and more than likely some form of a video game. I find these things relaxing, but not sleep inducing. Spend some time today breathing and being. There is nothing in the world that needs you right now. When your day is over, deal with tomorrow, tomorrow. Just take time to do nothing. Schedule yourself 'out of office', 'on break', or 'one day strike'. Just disconnect.
It is the best way to reconnect is to disconnect.
You need to take care of your own well being before you can be the best you for your loved ones.

“I confess that sometimes I tell people that I am busy just so that I don’t have to go out and see them. It
is not that I do not like them. It is more that I want time to be alone, and sometimes I feel like some
people are like fine wine; I can enjoy their company once in awhile, but too much will make me drunk
and stupid. Nobody needs to be around me when I am not at my peak. I am either cranky, or just
bored. When I am bored, well, to be honest, I hear nothing that anyone says to me. I am not purposely
ignoring them. I am just, well, me.” ~jach~
