Every once in awhile, we just really need to sit back, relax and take our mind elsewhere.
I definitely have those moments and still have them, where I just need to walk away. I do it at work, when I am stressed I take 5 minutes and just stand outside, look up at the sky and remember how minuscule you are in this small world of ours. I think in this quick paced environment we live in nowadays, where anyone can contact you with a press of a button, we do need to take time out for ourselves, we need a break.
You will see at the top of my blog there is the menu section, if you’re ever feeling this way and just need to chill, hover over the “Chill out zone” link at the top.
What’s in the chill out zone:
Here within this little space of heaven (well I think it is) are a number of links that I have found over the years that have really helped me relax. Anxiety attacks are bloody awful, I know, I’ve had quite a few!
But we only have 1 body, we need to learn to love it more. We need go learn to know what our body is telling us, what we need and how we should help it physically, emotionally and mentally
(If you’re on your mobile, click the menu button on the top and you’ll get the links lovely).
