Schedule time off for regeneration
Arrange fixed times when you are not available and don't have to worry about anything. Your loved ones will understand that you need these islands of peace to regenerate.
Use gentle exercise to recharge your batteries
Proper recovery also means not neglecting your body. A long walk after lunch, romping around in the snow or a trip to the swimming pool: enjoy how this clears your head and gives you new strength and energy. Meditation also helps wonderfully. It is often enough to concentrate on your breathing for a few minutes with your eyes closed. This makes you feel secure in the here and now.
Feel gratitude for greater well-being
It is so good to focus on what you have already achieved and to see all the wonderful things that surround us. Above all, of course, the people we love. Feeling and living gratitude is a great gift for our well-being.
Dive in and discover new worlds
When was the last time you made yourself comfortable on the sofa with a good book? Snuggled up in a blanket with hot chocolate and snacks? Everyday life is already far away, you enter another world, experience adventures, become a heroine ... Just dive in!
Look back and consciously reflect
Take a look back at the good and difficult moments of the past year - without judging them. Say goodbye to the year and thank yourself for the experiences that have made you richer. Then put it behind you and look to the future carefree and without worries.
Be inspired, take advice
Catch up on conversations with friends, relatives and acquaintances, which are often neglected in everyday life. Talk openly about yourself and your needs. Share your fears and worries and let others inspire you: They may have helpful tips on how you can better meet your needs in the future.
Lower your own expectations
You can only de-stress if you do without. You don't have to do everything. Especially not perfectly. No one in your family or your guests will benefit if everything is chic - and you're all washed up.
