It is good to have balance in my life, and spend time doing some courses, writing and with my son and family.
I am doing a monthly challenge, No Spend January and want to stop buying moisturisers, and use up and give some of my items to donate that have not been used, and using two creams my Nivea creams one I use everyday and one I use when putting on my make up, and will help give me more space and will feel relieved in thinking about it and visioning myself using just two creams, and not have a load of skincare products to use.
I want to be logical and today I did upgrade one of my blog sites because I want it to have more of an identity and will help expand my writing and creating of my blogs even more and feel I need to do this to move forward, and need to think about my blogs in a business like mind and I want to create more to help reach out to my audience and help their life easier aswell as mine, and feel I need identity and so needed to do this to stop the anxiousness over it.
Getting fit is one I am trying to add to my life again, and enjoy the little workouts I do and yesterday I did some when I got to my son's home in Epsom whilst I waiting for the kettle to boil, I make sure I do some walking and look after my wellbeing, so important and control my eating habits as I don't want to be eating biscuits and things like that all of the time, and I love my evening meal so make sure I don't eat too much to enjoy my dinner in the evening.
Focusing on the these things helps me have balance in my life, and not feel sluggish with no energy.
I like to take my time and spend time with my thoughts and address my fears and if I find myself feeling overwhelmed I will stop and then make notes and take each day step by step.
Life isn't about being stressed but living and enjoying life, and doing things that improve my wellbeing.
I want to enjoy each day and if something goes wrong I try not have it play in my mind, and think of a resolution. Like this week I didn't realise my son was doing swimming lessons once a week, but was everyday so he didn't have his swimming gear for that day, but lucky he did have spares as his one from the beginning was in the washing machine, so I picked up his spares and took them to his school so he can still go swimming on that day and didn't have to miss out. I felt so bad, but solved it so learned to pay attention when it comes to events at my sons school.
Saturdays, which is tomorrow I focus on spending time with my son, and so take a day off from my blogs and books etc, and then continue on Sunday, ready for the start of a new week.
So I hope you have balance in your life and if you'd like to add your feedback then you can do in the comments below.
