I make it a habit to try to have those a few days a month, today happens to be one of those. I am curled up reading all day, having food delivered, husband is at a hockey game. Life is good.
Fortunately fairly recent for me…having been out of work for two months, but being able to kick back, and let me mind rest was in order. I had to force it, but I had such a day and loved it.
I ask my Self…what would I do if I was on vacation right now?…and I do it.
The day you posted the question….I spent the entire day with a Dear Friend…6 of those hours in silence at a Scandinave Spa. 🙂
Been busy staring new chapters of my life.. as Jimmy Buffet said “Oh, the yesterdays are over my shoulder, So I can’t look back for too long
There’s just too much to see waiting in front of me… 🙂
Hmm… does two months without internet and cellphone on top of a mountain count as totally relaxing, even when work is involved? Yes. Yes, I think it does. When do I get to do it again.
How about walking 12-14 miles a day while doing field research? Maybe not to some, but when it’s just me and nature with no cellphones and digital interference, I find that it’s incredibly relaxing.
The ironic thing is, I complain about social media on social media. It’s a horrible worldwide addiction. People don’t talk face-to-face anymore. People like Zuckerberg have figured out a way to keep us constantly attached to an electronic tit. Even the game apps on our phone. They fulfill our percieved need to swipe and click. It’s an addiction. Any opportunity to get away from it is like an awakening.
I like to relax by being active, to sit in front of the tv or to lay down on the bed for me is more tired, when meeting a friend for walk, last time i had fully relaxing day which means with activities what i love yesterday❤️
To relax my brain i like to run, it helps to switch of my mind and for the physical i l do meditation from15min to 30hours, it is way enough, i can relax by staying on the bed or in front of tv, it makes me more tired🌸
