Be Well Wednesday: Schedule in Some Recovery Time

On today’s installment of my audio blog, I explore the role of recovery time in our lives and why it is so important in our fast-paced and 24/7 culture.  I also share my perspective on why so many of us don’t give ourselves permission to have these much-needed recovery periods.  You can listen below, or click here to download the episode onto your MP3 player.

 

 

Just as our cars need an oil change, more gas, and some attention after a long trip, we as human beings need downtime on a regular basis in order to function at our best. 

 

Really take a close look at your schedule for the next few weeks.  Where could you start plugging in some recovery time?  What activities or events do you have coming up that will require a great deal of your time and energy?  Right now, on your calendar, schedule in some recovery periods after these so that you can renew your body and your spirit. 

 

We’re not the Energizer Bunny.  Create the space for you to honor your needs.  Your body will thank you.  And those around you will really notice the difference.
