Rest

Rest is essential when you are tired; give into your desire for a break or a nap.  You will be doing others a favor. ~ Dr. Angela Kowitz Orobko

Everyone I know gets crabby or ill-spirited when they are tired. It would be best that these people do the rest of us a favor and take a break or possibly take a nap. Resting is a mood lifter and helps us to maintain our positive energy and it lowers our blood pressure. I would rather have quality time with my loved ones who took time to take care of themselves and relaxed a bit more. Wouldn’t you?

It seems during the summer months we are all so active, engaged in many outdoor events. We are all extremely busy making the most of the long days we have! In combination with all the extra activity, many of us are experiencing extreme heat where we live. All this zap our energy. In nature, animals rest during the heat of the day. It is during these times that we really need to slow down, grab a cold refreshment and take a break. If possible, build a nap into our routine. We need to give ourselves permission to take a break. A little rest goes a long way and it will make everyone happier!
