Need to Recharge?
Need to recharge? We recharge our phones, our laptops, and our tablets. Our electrical devices need to be recharged frequently however many of us seldom take time to recharge ourselves, which often results in burnout, a compromised immune system, and illness. Perhaps the most valuable thing to recharge is ourselves, and what if the key to recharging your own personal battery is to unplug?
Life can be stressful and challenging at the best of times, and as a result of the pandemic our lives have changed dramatically in ways that we could never have imagined. Not to mention that in this technological age we are currently living in, we are constantly bombarded with texts and emails around the clock. So now more than ever taking the time to recharge is essential to our overall health and well-being. Recharging ourselves by unplugging doesn’t have to be super stressful or time consuming.
Looking for a quick and simple way to recharge? BREATHE, BREATHE, BREATHE! Try incorporating one or more of these ideas throughout the day and notice the impact on your battery:
● Peaceful moment break - simply close your eyes, place your hand on your heart and focus on your breath. Take 5 deep breaths (inhaling for a count of 5 and exhaling for a count of 5)
● Nature break - step outside for some fresh air. While outside take 5 deep breaths (inhaling for a count of 5 and exhaling for a count of 5)
● Gratitude break - take a moment to think of 3 things that you appreciate in your life and as you think of these things, take 5 deep breaths (inhaling for a count of 5 and exhaling for a count of 5)
Each of the suggestions listed above involve conscious breathing. Inhaling and exhaling – it’s something we do all day. It’s also something we don’t think about too often. As simple as breathing is for our everyday lives, it is the groundwork for improving our mind, body, and soul. Breath work can help us reach a deeper state of mind. Consciously breathing will ground us and make it much easier to take a step back in challenging situations to gain insightful perspective. Breathing also helps realign our nervous system by slowing down our heart rate and lowering our blood pressure. Intentionally altering the way we breathe is the fastest way to change how we feel. Conscious breathing gets us out of your mind by taking away stress and adding new energy into the body.
So how do we start to incorporate one or more of these simple strategies? Begin small. Set an alarm on your phone or put a reminder in your calendar and make regular unplugging part of your everyday experience. The more often we engage in these breaks throughout the day, the more recharged our battery will be. Each suggestion takes less than 5 minutes to do and will have a positive impact on our overall well-being. Here’s to unplugging and recharging!
