How To Take Me Time
Switch your focus from to-do lists onto your to be list.
1. Inspiration
Everyday schedule space to be inspired to connect with one tiny thing that lights you up. This will rejuvenate you even if you've had a draining day.
2. Innovation
Your ticket away from stress will come through connecting with your creativity. Focus on a slightly challenging creative project to access flow, a state of no rumination.
3. Introspection
Looking inwards is vital to activate the rest wing of our nervous system. Without space for daily reflection, our mind becomes cluttered, and this causes us to haemorrhage energy.
