The other day as I sat playing with my Facebook page I got a message from a dear friend who works extremely hard. “Today I'm goofing off,” she said. What struck me is what a wonderful feeling that is, to just goof off. Of course by playing with our Facebook page we came to the conclusion we were doing just that and laughed. By the way, laughing decreases your age by almost 8 years if you make the effort to do it each day.
It’s important that we goof off as much as we consciously can in our lives. As a dieter or one who’s constantly trying to maintain her weight, feeling good rather than always feeling full is a relief. That’s why I suggest you try relaxing during this long process and embrace life and just have fun.
You’ve heard the saying “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” Well, it’s the truth. I’ve done it. The heart starts to race, the stress level goes up, you can’t sleep as well, and you forget to appreciate the little things. You're just one big ball of nerves. People start to dislike being around you and life has little meaning.
Here are 5 reasons to goof off today:
1. Less stress
2. Smaller waistline
3. Lowered Blood Pressure
4. Boosts your productivity level at work and home.
5. Helps you regain your energy level so you’re physically able to do more enjoyable things.
Now, if that’s not enough reasons to give you permission to goof off, I don’t know what is.
I love goofing off! Sounds like a great idea for tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteAnd I really enjoy reading your blog! Keep blogging!
Thank you Sandy. I'm glad you're going to take my advice and goof off a little. I'm glad you're here and that you are enjoying my blog. Keep in touch. I love hearing other comments and getting feedback. I saw that you love to bake. I love to bake too, healthier versions of all my favorites but an occasional splurge on my weekends so I never feel deprived.
