134: Rest and Reset: One Simple Habit to Let go and Refresh
Manage episode 460532673 series 3372246
It’s nighttime, and you are winding down for the day.
What habits or routines do you have to shake off the day and prepare yourself for sleep?
- Washing your face and brushing your teeth
- Taking a bubble bath with essential oils
- Drinking a cup of chamomile tea
- Reading
- Meditating
- Listening to a podcast
How about journaling?
Journaling to let go of your day.
This week, on Episode #134 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we are discussing this one habit that has the potential for great benefits when it comes to resting and resetting from your day.
Ask yourself: “What would I like to let go of from today?”
It could be a conversation you had that left you feeling rattled.
Or maybe it’s an un-made decision you have been stressing over all day.
It could be unfinished items on your to-do list.
Or perhaps just a worry, thought, or emotion you have been burdened with.
It could be one thing, or a few things, or even a whole laundry list of things that have you feeling tense and unable to let go into sleep.
Whatever it is for you, try writing it down - or just saying it out loud.
Then, choose to let that go for now:
- Say out loud that you’re letting it go
- Close your eyes and think about letting it go
- Picture the stressors of your day floating away
- Crumple up your piece of paper and throw it in the trash
- Close the journal and put it away for tomorrow
Experiment with all of these approaches and see which ones work best for you.
Take a deep breath.
Release the tension.
Relax, rest, and let go.
Until tomorrow…
