I hope you are enjoying the holidays, and if you don’t celebrate Easter, I hope you are still enjoying some rest and quality time off with your loved ones.

Or maybe you struggle to take time off and actually RELAX... hands up ! (Me first )

However, taking time off work and unwinding is crucial for maintaining optimal mental health and well-being.

Here are some reasons why:

· Reduces stress: Work can be stressful and demanding, which can take a toll on our mental health. Taking time off work allows us to relax and reduce stress levels, which can improve our overall mood and help us actually feel better.

· Boosts creativity: When we are constantly working and focused on tasks, we can sometimes get stuck in a rut. Taking time off work and doing something different can help stimulate our creativity and give us fresh ideas.

· Improves productivity: Taking time off work can actually improve our productivity in the long run. When we are rested and rejuvenated, we are more motivated and focused, which can lead to better work performance.

· Enhances relationships: Work can often get in the way of our personal relationships. Taking time off work allows us to spend quality time with loved ones, which can strengthen our relationships and improve our overall well-being.

· Promotes self-care: Taking time off work is an important form of self-care. It allows us to prioritize our own needs and take care of ourselves both physically and mentally.

Although I am working now, I am actually taking the rest of the day off, no clients and a little break from U105. This is me, taking care of me !

This is your reminder to relax today, maybe spend some time in nature, work will be there when you come back !

See you all next week !
