Give It A Rest!

Give It A Rest!

 

Animals, especially cats and dogs, instinctively know when their bodies need a nap to rest. As humans, we tend to keep going, pushing past boundaries, sometimes to the point of exhaustion or well after. So today, I might go with it and if you get a chance, do it!

 

💤 😴 💤

 

We can choose to stay awake despite feeling tired, often due to family commitments, work, social obligations, or entertainment. This often overrides natural rhythms that can lead to a sleep deprived environment and eventually, health problems.

 

💤 😴 💤

 

Erma Bombeck, one of my favorite comedians once said, “I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren’t there for the day."

 

💤 😴 💤

 

So, when possible, sneak in a few minutes to rest the mind, the eyes and the body. It'll do you good unless, of course, you're showing houses, shopping or at work and that might create other issues! 

 

Give It A Rest all!

I do a pretty good job of getting enough rest, but there are still too many times when my mind gets in the way of going to sleep, haha.

This happens to be good advice for me today.

Have a great day and an outstanding weekend.

Good health depends on making better decisions for ourselves. For some, it’s learned the hard way, Hannah Williams!

Sundays are reserved for relaxing, Nina Hollander, Broker, unless clients are in town. Then I can adapt and adjust!

While our children were growing up, there was no rest, George Souto! Every day was go, go, go!

A quick nap can re-energize us, Nick Vandekar, 610-203-4543. Our bodies do know best but the mind can override!

Erma was one of my favorites, Dorie Dillard Austin TX and saw family life as very important. She used humor to make light of the human condition!

Personal health depends on taking cues and then acting on them, Kathy Streib. Some nights my body is ready for bed while my mind is still in full wake mode!

Only when absolutely necessary do I nap but can admit that if I do, it helps mind & body, Kat Palmiotti!

Reading helps take the mind off work rather than drinking alcohol, no hangover, Brian England!

Good morning Wanda. While at times it is impossible to take the time to fully recharge the batteries, we all can take a few minutes from time to time for a battery boost. It does clear the mind and improve performance. Enjoy your day.

Wanda, you are so right. I keep a pillow that wraps around my neck sitting right under my desk. Twenty minutes and I'm good. Love the dog on this blog.

Sleeping at work is permitted as long as the BOSS gives his okay, right, Mike Cooper, Broker VA,WV? That dog was perfect for the post!

Hi Wanda:

This is such a good reminder for us all. Rest is important for our emotional and physical well-being but sometimes life, and business, gets in the way.
