Affirmation for May 4, 2011: Healthy Rest
I still need more healthy rest in order to work at my best. My health is the main capital I have and I want to administer it intelligently.- Ernest HemingwayThought of the day:Being able to rest both your body and your mind is essential to keep both at optimum levels of performance. Rest is just as important as eating the right foods and getting enough exercise. Are you getting enough?If not, you will be able to tell sooner or later. We all get busy at times and sometimes, our brains are too stimulated to realize it needs to take a break. Do yourself a favor and follow the advice you've probably heard when you were a little kid: go to bed early, get at least 8 hours of sleep, and take a nap if you feel drained.Have a refreshing day!TeamDS

Our bodies usually let us know when we need to take a break. Listen to your body.
I need to remember to make some time to refresh and renew the body, mind and soul. Meditation, relaxation, exercise and fun.
Sometimes we need to take time to refresh so we don\'t get discouraged or tired. If you get tired, it may be because you\'re...
not well, have a long illness and grow weary.
never have enough resources to complete tasks.
trying too hard for something that isn\'t worth it.
growing old and slowing down.
not eating well.
not seeing the desired outcome or answer to a prayer.
upset, depressed or discouraged.
or grief has drained you.
Being tired can make us prone to discouragement and temptation and cause us to lose Hope that things will ever change or improve. We can lose perspective and also say things we may later regret. And we can lose sight of our vision and purpose.
Remember to take time out and rest.
Also for those who have a HP/God. He who gives you strength will also renew your strength.
Be kind to yourself. :}
I know that I have too many issues that keep me tied up physically, emotionally and I have been so tired and didn\'t feel like it was ever going to end for me thanks for your post it helps.
