Yet the simplest and sweetest of all recipes is, “ the sweetness of quality time with your own self ”
You must be wondering, What about that! However , in the present era, where information and knowledge can be accessed with just a click, we forgot to spend time with ourselves. These days, the moment you find anyone free, they run for grasping their gadgets. Knowledge and social media connection is fine but what is ticking away…..IS OUR LIFE…
Keeping this awareness in mind, let’s pledge to spend quality time with ourselves, snatch some quality time of the day with yourself, talking to yourself, journaling, sipping a beverage in your own company or with nature, just sitting by yourself or laying down and relaxing.
Start doing nothing for some time. Probably, our ancestors lived that way. We tend to underestimate the power of time spent this way. Usually, we tend to look out or search for solutions for our problems from people, books or internet. Although nobody understands our challenges or situation, better than us. You may be surprised by finding answers or solutions on certain aspects of life just by spending quality time with yourself. It will refresh you as well and give you inner peace. Definitely worth a trial!!!
