Mid-Week Wacky Break

Do you have any wacky decorations that make you smile? In your home, at work, car?

I have silly large microbes and other "happy objects" at my desk at work. Pic in comments.

Please share a pic of your wackiness.

I don't like Mondays. I just don't.
Not all Mondays, but most.

Cliché? Perhaps, but many people do struggle with Sundays, knowing that Mondays are just a few hours away.

I always try to be as kind as possible to myself on a Monday and if I can, I allow myself some "me" time. I make sure I schedule in something that makes me happy.

You don't always have do what everyone else does. Cope in your own way. No-one's healing looks the same. That's what makes us unique.

Take a minute or ten. Be still, breathe and just be with yourself. You know what's best for you. Listen to your mind and body and learn to trust your inner voice.
It's definitely okay to look after your own needs.

A cheerful experiment!

I tried out a really fun technique using white school glue as the resist, and watercolors as the medium. Give it a go for a relaxing break! #Watercolors #TakeaBreak

You can’t expect to get out of life alive, so it’s best the make the most of the time you have.

Life... do you join in it?
Or is it just too difficult sometimes?
For me, I need my sleep, 12 hrs a day.
I must made an Assessment of my body in the first hour. Some days, I immediately give up....💔😰

Take A Break

Major respect to everyone dealing with mental illness on top of physical illness. It’s an insane balancing act, and some days just feel impossible. Today feels impossible for me, but it’s okay to take a break and take care of yourself in the ways that you need to. That’s what this little muffin reminds me to do. #TakeaBreak #MentalHealth #ChronicIllness

What sounds are relaxing to you? #52SmallThings

When you’re trying to unwind after a busy or hard day, what sounds evoke a sense of calm and relaxation for you? Maybe it’s the sound of ocean waves crashing on the shoreline or babbling brooks. Maybe it’s soothing instrumental music. Or perhaps it’s one of your favorite songs — no matter the tempo.

Whether you have a whole playlist or just one sound or song that centers you, share your go-to in the comments below.

Do you ever need someone else to tell you when to take a break? #52SmallThings

Maybe you’re on a roll with completing tasks that you lose track of time and you don’t realize you haven’t taken a break in some time. Or maybe you know you need to rest but you don’t feel like you can until you finish your to-do list.

Has someone had to step in and remind you it’s OK to to press “pause” on what you’re doing? If yes, we’re not here to judge you. But do consider this post your reminder to “take five” today.
