It is important for our teens and you the parent of teens to Schedule Some ‘Me Time’
This holiday season schedule in some me time and allow you teen to have “me time” this is a time to Sharpen your Saw (“to preserve and enhance the greatest asset you have – you!”)
Our lives are busy! We are busy people! Sometimes we think that if we are not ‘busy” we are wasting time. We sometimes minimize our need for “me” time.
Something to think about- Going for long periods without time for yourself may cost you in the end. (Stress, not as efficient in school or home, relationships struggle). When you do need to get things done your energy is drained. “Me” time can make you a better person both inside and out.
How To Take “Me” Time
Schedule a little “me” time. You may need to give yourself permission to take at least a half hour per day, even if it’s divided, just for yourself. Taking this “me” time can be as simple as sitting outside, reading a book, or engaging in your favorite hobby for a half hour or more. Unless calling or texting a friend or family member relaxes you keep all devices turned off. An important thing to do is let those around you be aware that you will be off limits – except in an emergency, of course. Set your boundaries.
We hope you enjoy this gift you are giving yourself. Have a wonderful few week.
