When did you last take a walk on your own?
Author: Professor Joyce Harper
Me time – when did you last take a walk on your own, so you could unwind, reflect, relax and take in your surroundings? Not a walk to work, or a walk home, or a walk with friends. Truly on your own?
I managed to do it today. I am currently at a conference in Regensburg, Germany and have been juggling child-care and work. Whilst the kids were eating breakfast, I took 10 minutes to have a walk by the river. But a word of warning, do not take your phone!! After about 8 minutes, the kids phoned me to say hello.
But while it lasted – it was wonderful to be aware of my surroundings, take some deep breathes and unwind. I am going to try and do this as much as I can (I almost wrote everyday but I am sure that is not going to happen).
It is a great way to have me time and to clear your head.
