Relaxamation - Today Is My Day (13 minutes)

  • Summary

  • Today’s episode is a relaxamation and it focuses on taking time for yourself and putting yourself first.

    When was the last time you spent a whole day just for yourself, doing only what you wanted to do when you wanted to do it? I don’t do it very often myself and yet I know that I should.

    It’s an essential part of self-care. Self-care shouldn’t be for when you’re burnt out, uptight, stressed and feeling awful it should be used as part of your everyday life to avoid feeling depleted and unable to cope. If you have others that you care for or look after then you need to look after yourself first. Think of the oxygen mask on the plane, always put it on yourself first else you won’t be able to save others and may even make the situation worse.

    Life should be enjoyable as our mental health impacts our physical health; do you know what brings you joy? Maybe a bit of homework for you 😉

    Time is something we can’t make more of but we can make more money, have more relationships or more jobs, and find some time for yourself. Live with gratitude for all the experiences you have, if you can’t give yourself a day, then look for an hour or maybe an afternoon.

    Be glad you did rather than wish that you had!

    Your affirmations

    1. Today is my day
    2. I set aside time to laugh and play
    3. I spend time doing what I love

    Say your affirmations 5 times each as a set. Repeat your set of affirmations at least once a day. The more you use them the bigger the impact. Add them to a habit that you do every day. While cleaning your teeth, driving, running, walking your dog, washing the dishes, when you first wake up or the last thing at night.

    Your self-reflection questions are:

    1. What is one new thing I want to try today?
    2. How can slowing down help me to stop wasting time?
    3. What can children teach me about enjoying life?
    4. What do I enjoy doing, having, and being?

    Use these reflection questions to delve a little deeper and get to know yourself better. You can use them as prompts for journaling, during meditation or just give yourself a few moments of time to consider.
