Schedule Your Priorities





Hello! It's been a while since my last blog post.  Reminds me that I need to schedule my priorities. What a challenging and exciting year 2017 was. Let's all look forward to a bright 2018.

As you embark on a new year give yourself a break; it is beneficial to your mental and physical health to relax and recuperate.

Life is demanding and can be stressful at times. I am sure you would agree; so many things to do in so little time. But, if you keep going at full speed everyday, it can be hard on you physically and mentally. You will eventually burn out. and you do not want that! 
Through relaxation, the body, mind and spirit renews themselves.

Some Benefits of Relaxing;


  • Boosts the immune system
  • Reduces our stress levels
  • Has a positive effect on our energy levels and productivity



If you are feeling overwhelmed and stressed, you are not alone. Stress is a basic part of life, and our bodies are designed  to handle small doses of stress, but too much stress can affect all aspects of your life; physically, mentally and cognitively. In my opinion, excessive stress is a slow killer.

Tune out. Turn off. Shut down.

There are many ways to help manage and reduce your stress levels:



Read a book. Meditate. Dance. Cook. Tap into your Creativity. Get outside and take in some sunshine or cool breeze. Visit nature. Go swimming. Walking. Golfing. Hiking.  When the opportunity arises or when it best suits you, travel. Etc. Whatever you choose to do, enjoy every minute of it and try to incorporate some form of activity into your everyday life.



I know what you are thinking; "I don't have time" Yes you do! We all have time. The key is to; schedule your priorities. Oh yes I am a culprit of not scheduling my priorities efficiently. It's my 2018 resolution to step up my game. However, I do take time to relax. You can schedule 15 to 30 minutes a day for relaxation.

A seat awaits you.

A stroll along the beach; a great way to unwind, get inspired and enjoy a sunset. There is magic all around, the high flying shore birds, the hammocks in the ocean, the beautiful flowers, palm trees, the sound of gently lapping waves, the reflection of the sunlight on the ocean, a magnificent sunset, the sensation of the wind blowing through my hair so invigorating and pleasurable. I am intoxicated by the wonder of it all and being alive is truly a blessing and a beautiful thing.  Swing seats with a view of the Sunset . It does not end here, there is that perfect seat! the ultimate bar swing! hoorah! The wooden fixture with swing seats for my relaxation; total comfort that's absolutely amazing! This calls for a refreshing drink; maybe a cocktail or champagne.  A little chitchat with a friendly bartender who is always smiling and ready to serve, a compilation of soothing Caribbean music and a view of the breathtaking sunset. What more can I ask for? I ndeed ...
