What a journey this year has been so far. Allowing health to become one of my top priorities has had such an immeasurable impact on every part of my life. Not just health in terms of the food and exercise but mental health as well.
Modern society looooooves stress. Sometimes it feels as if stresses are the blocks our society is built on. Work deadlines, busy schedules, relationships, lack of sleep, not taking time for ourselves. Stress has become such a normal part of our lives that its so easy to forget how damaging it can be. I should know. I am a self professed stress head. If I am inhaling or exhaling I am probably stressing about something. To say it was taking its toll on me would be putting it mildly.

| Don't let stress pull you into the darkness. |
BUT, I'm working on it, and I've been working on it for a while now. Things have been shifting in my life for some time and I feel that the fog is lifting I am finally starting to find true balance & some inner peace. Putting the brakes on my run away stress mobile has been a big part of that, and I have a whole handful of wonderful people in my life that help me.

| Take some time out just for you. |
So if you are like me and even the simplest of tasks has your mind and your stress mobile running a million miles an hour please take heed. Find even the smallest time out in your day where you can be completely relaxed, wether its a short walk in the crisp morning air to start your day or finishing your day with a cup of tea and a good book for half an hour. Make sure you take some time to yourself to recharge your batteries, you might not know they're running low until you completely run out.
Be kind to yourself,
Kitty xx
