30 Jun How NOT to Sabotage your ME time!

We all know it – we’ve busted it all day being organised for whole beautiful hour of ME time. A total treat! Then you ‘just quickly’ check your email (or FaceBook or newspaper), or you ‘quickly’ take an unnecessary call and boom! Times up. You walked into the trap.

Don’t even attempt to have any ME time without first following the essential

FOUR S’s OF ME TIME.

  1. Spend it. Know exactly what you would do in 5 minutes, 1 hour, half a day or on a whole day off. Have an emergency list so you don’t find yourself idly folding laundry or answering calls.
  2. Schedule it. Once you’ve found your ME time – lock it in the diary like you do everything else. If you’re hopeless at ME time, you may need to book an appointment to have your nails done or book lunch with a friend.
  3. Spruke it. Facebook it, or tell the fam and friends – the more people who know it’s happening – the more likely you’ll do it.
  4. Say Thanks for it. “What you Appreciate, Appreciates” (A favourite saying of mine by Dr. John Demartini). Gratitude and thankfulness go a long way.

 

But wait – working in peace is ME time. Right? WRONG! I loooooove working in peace time, but it’s exactly that. Work. Guess what? Working out isn’t ME time either – that’s a given. The ME time is the cheeky 10 minutes in the sauna after your workout where you switch off and be in the moment. ME time is the stolen walk in the park, the half an hour in bed with a cuppa, or the long overdue lunch date with a friend.

It’s all too easy to put everyone else first, but you have to look after your own engine too!

Love and extra Me time vibes,
