Me time

Today’s ‘hug from spirit’ is a card which shows a figure who has climbed a very tall tree. He is sitting happily on one of the branches, far up high and away from the world below, reading a book. The title of the book is “Time for You”.

How much time do you take for yourself? Life can be busy and chaotic with many distractions, so making time for ourselves can be difficult. But doing so can be really valuable. It allows us to recharge our batteries before engaging with the world again, fully refreshed and ready for the next challenge.

So perhaps find somewhere quiet to curl up with a book, or snuggle up with a blanket and watch a movie or listen to music. Pick something that soothes your soul and helps you relax. It might even be a walk in nature or doing something with crafts.

A little bit of self-indulgence is a good thing as we can’t pour from an empty cup. Fill that cup back up with “me time” to allow yourself to engage with the world again with fully recharged batteries.
