How to know when to take a break

avatar

Hello Hiveians

I need a break
What kind of break
And how?
You may also need a break after reading through I suppose, am making my points short and clear
I kept thinking about these words until I decided do a mental evaluation of everything happening around me today and what I have been up to.
Its certainly a busy Monday here and everyone is up and doing around me, different work and assignment been completed, but my lazy self seem idle so i thought but in reality I haven't been idle. Am just not working at the moments.

List of activities I have done

  • I woke up at 6am and prepared my little sis for school then went further to fill a drum of water from the nearby community tap

  • Next I washed up a pile of my clothes for almost 3 hours and they are on the drying line here

I was exhausted, ate breakfast about 12pm and dozed off after a quick bath.
I woke up and yet felt unable to do anything and have been walking around the house ever since.

Why I needed a break.

My mind has to works before my hands can do anything.
I have to think about what has to be done within me first before I consciously do anything with my hands around here, my mind is just quiet today and maybe its telling me to just sit and rest and do nothing

Don't do anything today I keep hearing that 😁 repeatedly

Most times we work and work without taking a break, we want to catch up and be on top of everything in life we cook, shop, go for meetings and do a whole lot.
We want to make money and over stress ourselves at all cost.
We want to take care of our homes and forget we need to be taking care of as well.

I was chatting with a friend last night and realized how she had come down due to severe work pressure, I felt sad though, is it all about the money.

Why can't you take a break and enjoy some quality time even if you are alone

Personally I haven't taking good care of myself lately, I carried a single hairdo for a month and had to force myself to losen it yesterday, am still indecisive about visiting a salon to have it fixed
What kind of a human am I 🙈

All I did this noon was sit and enjoy some groundnuts i did take a break from everything, I had a fine and relaxing day and some quality rest too

What do you need to take a break from?

make a list of your daily activities and see if you can chip in some time for rest and leisure

Call for help when you need extra hands in the house
You can keep the kids with a friend and have some time alone.

Rest is good for your health, don't pile up stress or breakdown like my friend.

I love you all and wish that you live an abundant and healthy lives.
Get quality rest and stay healthy

Thanks for having me.
