Saturday Smiles

Hello World ! I'm 15 minutes old

It's a quiet, rainy Saturday. As someone who has always loved the rain, it's my kind of day.

If you don't enjoy the rain, you can still find ways to enjoy your
Try reading a book, watching some TV, listening to this lovely song from 1935's Top Hat, any activity that keeps you dry and happy!

Try to give yourself at least five minutes today. If you are able, see how much time you can spend just for yourself. Maybe it's fifteen minutes, thirty, an hour...or all day! Hope you are able to find some time to be kind to yourself!

It can be hard to prioritize yourself. Taking time to do something for you feels selfish when there are so many things that need done and so many who need you. Still, we can not be fully present to help others if our health begins to fail because we are not taking care of ourselves. This if it's hard to justify doing something for yourself, do it for the ones you love!

Eventually caring for ourselves not only teaches us to value our own well-being, but passes that lesson on to those we care for as well.

An important concept emphasized in music therapy is self-care. Not just for those we work with, but for the therapists as well! Taking time to rest aids in mental and physical health in many ways. It has been an extremely stressful year, and people can benefit so much by giving themselves even a little time each day to refresh.

While we lead busy lives and may not always feel we have time to slow down, taking even a few minutes a day is a great way to start building habits caring for yourself! This Saturday, why not give it a try? Drink your coffee relaxing on the couch instead of while answering emails, read a chapter in that book you've been promising yourself you would start soon, or set a timer for five minutes, close your eyes, breathe and just be still.

Happy Saturday!
