You need alone time.
/You need alone time.
If you laugh and think what’s alone time - you really freaking need it... now.
Want to feel a little (or a lot) better? Simply CREATE time to do whatever the heck you want ALONE.
I take my own advice on this daily and feel much of my joy and sanity is because of it.
When I don’t carve out any me-time, I feel it. I’m drained by the end of the day. I don’t sleep as well. I find myself with more late night tv time (a definite pleasure, but there’s a limit on its usefulness) and less time on my spirituality and personal development (my non-guilty pure pleasure). I have a shorter fuse. I’m more likely to feel the weight of the world, worried, anxious, negative and take things personally.
Benefits of this self-prescribed cure-all:
💫 Helps reestablish healthy boundaries.
💫 Gives you the space to listen to your body.
💫 Allows you to be aware of your thoughts and adjust the ones not serving you.
💫 Leads to less frustration with your partner, kiddos, the entire freaking world.
💫 More grounded. More protected.
💫 Less reactive.
💫 Helps combat the Cinderella Syndrome (when you feel like a damn maid/doormat/yes-woman to everyone except yourself)
💫 Less complaints and negativity.
💫More positivity and stopping to notice the simple beauty all around you.
💫 Feel more connected to your own light and your team Above.
To anyone who says they can’t carve out any time for yourself, I call bullshit.
There is always a way to get what you want. Is your sanity/happiness/contentment not a priority??
Add up all the time you spend scrolling on your phone, watching tv, whatever your distractions — you will find the time. Take an extra few minutes in the car or bathroom - whatever it takes.
You are worthy of living your best life... now.
This time of year can be especially heavy, overwhelming or busy. Unapologetically go get you some me-time.
Your entire world (internal and external) benefits from your alone time.
If you can’t think of an excuse to do it for yourself, do it for us. 😘
What will you do with your alone time?
Big Hugs, Sara
