Unofficial "Let's a have a Wellbeing week"!

2 Replies

Hi all,

That's it! I'm on strike! Not from work, or most things even, but I am starting to rebel against a world that makes appointments for me, doesn't ask if I want them, or even if its convenient.....

So I am booking 3 days from work next week and calling it my own Personal Wellbeing Week!

Why not?

I'm very behind on housework; home currently looks like someone had a Sharknado party in it.

So home is not a restful as it should be, nor am I eating or sleeping as well as i should be because of it.

So 3 days respite from work next week for wellbeing.

Yay.

Hopefully, that should be enough to get on top of things without work getting in the way, get medical appointments do, on top of the laundry. Give myself a chance to cook and eat something. According to McMillan, I should have been able to get assistance with this stuff. Nope. Didn't qualify. A cancer doesn't automatically qualify. Hrmph.

So, Circuitbreaker's Wellbeing week is Monday - Wednesday next. You are invited! To get involved, just pick something you feel will bring pleasure and a bit of peace to you. and then do it!

If you feel you need to put yourself ahead of every other person next week, do it! Sure, if you have enough energy left over to do things for others, please do! And that would be great.

and obviously, don't abscond from work! That's not what I'm saying! I'm just using up some holiday, and using it on me instead of medical appointments.

I'm going to make those days the days where I try and restore the balance that there should be in life.

Looking forward to it!

What a wonderful idea Hidden , having "little wellbeing breaks" every now and then and using them to prioritise yourself, your needs and self-care! Sounds much needed and well deserved! Hope you enjoy every minute of it.
