uploaded some pics from last summer. this photo by Sia makes me holland home-sick.
A couple of days spent just on me, doing all kinds of nurturing things. Going to yoga and swimming. Making vegan pizza and lazing on the sofa. Sleeping late and seeing friends. Recharging batteries.
From now on I try to abide to the golden productivity rule: take one day off each week. That means a day completely free from any kind of work. No computer, no work calls, emails, nothing. Preferably get out off the house, and stay out, if that is the only way to keep you from doing stuff. This also cannot be turned into a housework day. It is supposed to inspire and relax you.
To busy-inclined individuals (like me) this might seem harsh and difficult, but it is supposed to up your productivity in other days so much that you actually get more done. I guess I need to try this.
What do you do to relax?
