For many of us, the first thing to be cut back on when life gets busy is sleep and rest. It seems to be the main thing that no one is keeping us accountable for. We HAVE TO go to work, WE HAVE TO be with our kids, WE HAVE TO get this and that job done. There doesn’t seem to be time to get enough sleep and refuel ourselves properly. However, if we don’t prioritise our recovery, we will soon find the quality of our involvement in all of these tasks at a sub-par level. You might find yourself ‘just getting through’ the hours at work, you could catch yourself being constantly snarly with your family, you could find yourself resenting all of the odd jobs you are doing. When we are tired – it affects all areas of our lives, making it difficult for any of it to feel fulfilling or worthwhile, and rarely showing anyone the best version of ourselves. So, ensure that rest and recovery is a priority for you this week – make it a priority to catch up on sleep and set up an appropriate bed time to get your 7-9 hours a night.
