daily inspiration: the joy – and pain – of taking breaks
Posted on: May 19, 2011
Hi everyone. It’s been waaaay too long since the last post… left mid-thread! My apologies. I’ve been traveling, coaching and teaching (and attending) workshops nonstop for the past few weeks, leaving little time to write my favorite reflections. While it’s been a joy to be as busy as I have doing what I love, I miss you!
Taking breaks is wonderful for renewal – but also difficult for continuity because of getting out of routine. Please forgive my absence, and thanks for your encouragement to get back here!
Action: Think about your regular activities. Is there anything you need a break from? Or, something that it’d serve you better to resume regular action?

I thrive on lots of routine… until I don’t. Then it’s time to shake things up, turn things on their head, go in another direction for awhile. Or not go anywhere at all.

Too often, we wait until we are beyond exhausted, or till we have no choice but not stop. learning to take a break, a time out, regularly leads to good health and wisdom, I say.
walk in beauty.
