118: The Benefit of Taking Time Off - Listener Requested

Hello, my ah-mazing empty nest friend, Breaks benefit us. We know this. Why, then, is it incredibly difficult for us to take the time for ourselves? As mothers, we tend to be experts at not taking breaks. So much so that when we do have downtime, we may not be sure what to do with ourselves.  Hmm, a micro-level of the whole empty nest experience, isn't it?  It might be thirty minutes sitting in your car in your driveway or a parking lot with your favorite music, or it might be more than that. Find something that will rejuvenate you in some way, and do it. Head to your CEO of Your Life's Toolbox for inspiration. You are amazing. Now take some time for yourself to uncover a bit more amazing-ness than you are allowing yourself to see right now.💚 🗨 "We all know it makes sense to take the break, to rejuvenate, to get the sleep you need, to hydrate yourself, to eat well, but sometimes our protector thinks they know better."
