Why is “Me Time” so important?
Because, whether we believe it or not, our mind and body are connected, and for our mind and body to function optimally, they need to be in sync. When they aren’t, you may notice changes in both. Such as, stress and tension may manifest themselves in your body as aches and pains like stomach cramping, back or neck aches or even migraines. And the same principle applies reversed. When a brain injury restricts you from undertaking usual activities, you may notice a change in mood, motivation, or concentration. It is amazing how our mind and body communicate with us, and regularly undertaking “Me Time” allows you to understand their messages and take action according to what you need.
