Intro-ception; “Me” time

Busy schedules keep people from taking well needed personal breaks

‘Me’ time in a 24/7 society is a dying concept. From the time the sun peeks out from the horizon, to when the stars are angrily blinking, our schedules are chalk full with meetings, school, work and the daily grind. Finally, when there is a break on the horizon, we press all matters to the wayside and we have no idea what to do with ourselves.

Today most people do not realize the value of personal time and that it can be just as rewarding as a raise at work. Taking time on ourselves should be just as important and as rewarding as getting that raise at work. Carving out a small portion of time each week,to focus on your needs can help create a low stress and productive lifestyle.

Without these small breaks, we lose a lot of what makes up our personalities. Take the time to discover why you are you, and though its hard to step away from haywire schedules, you will find they go by a lot quicker when you have peace and quiet in sight.
