How are you today? So often in today’s society we hear responses such as ‘I’m so busy’, I’m so exhausted’ or ‘Oh ok, you know not great, but I haven’t got time to complain’.
Reality is that many of us are juggling work, endless chores, places to be and errands to run, rushing our meals and running at full speed all of the time. Top that off with the attachment to our smartphones that keep our minds racing to respond to emails, acknowledge news alerts and incessantly tempt us to scroll through the latest feed, and we are increasingly neglecting time for ourselves. As a result, our minds are unable to be still, to be quiet and therefore, to slow down. This can have a knock on effect on our overall health and well-being, both physically and mentally.
Slowing down is crucial for overall health. Be it an extra few hours sleep, a walk in nature, a yoga class, a massage or reading a good book – the mind and body need time to recharge and recover. As most of us are so used to living at such a fast pace, this “slowing down” is often difficult to do.
Through my work as a holistic therapist, I help people to stop, relax, re-charge the batteries and take a moment to look at underlying causes of ill health.
So take time out for yourself today.
Come and try one of my treatments and leave feeling calm and refreshed.
