When people ask what you did today
Or what you did on your day off
It can be really upsetting
When you admit you did nothing
…
Some days it is too hard to achieve anything
Your body just wants to rest and you have to let it
You focus on feeling better
And are forced to let the day go by
…
Others achieve so much when they have a free day
But we often have to take those days for rest
To recover and revive our bodies and minds
Just to survive for the next few days
…
Please don’t feel guilty for not doing anything
You are doing what you need to do
You are achieving by resting
Your body doesn’t give you a choice in the matter
…
The problem is that if you don’t rest
You will feel worse and worse
Until you cannot carry on
You can’t force your body to cooperate
…
So listen to your body and your mind
Rest days can be positive
Just focus on the things you enjoy
That won’t take up much energy
…
Watch a good series or a favourite film
Just relax and enjoy your rest day
You deserve it for getting through the last few days
Don’t worry about what others think
