So yesterday I decided to take a day off work and invest in some Me TIME.. Cos I matter 💖 I have not had a day just for me in 8 years, except being ill. I threw out my to do list and free styled it. I had a really good day, I had a nap, went shopping on my own, read and sung and danced my heart out. I was in my zone, I felt more creative, inspired and got a great high after looking after me. I went back to work today rearing to go. After leaving an out of office that said I was having an all about me day to recharge. I got messages saying well done for taking time for me and promoting mental wellbeing. I spoke to my boss today who said he got emails for people asking if I was OK... Which I responded "that's great they care about me" he said they were worried and from now on could I stick to a formal out of office. I normally leave 3 inspiring quotes in my out of office reply too, cos just maybe it might help one person one day. I also wanted to show people that investing in our wellbeing is important, I matter, they matter, we all matter. Do a little deflated, I shared this with my friends. We are all off next week so in solidarity we will be leaving similar replies for people. Be you, the best you, make no excuses, be vulnerable, be brave and show up as you really are. I have never felt so good, but it takes effort to make it a habit. Be bold, be innovative, be all out wacky I say and live your best life every single day 🤸‍♀️😘
