Happy Sunday Everyone
I am not a good napper.
I envy my 17-year-old daughter who can nap like she has a PhD in rest and recovery. When I sit down to relax, my mind starts firing - I have to write a chapter of my book, the portal needs recipes, my taxes need to be done, did I send that email?
Absolutely, this is a symptom of single parenting, but I also think it is how I am wired. My mother used to wax poetic about how Winston Churchill won wars because he was a certified expert in power naps (he wasn't the only powerful man to do this) and I would reply - but I am sure his wife wasn't napping.
Long weekends remind us of the power of recovery and slowing down, and as someone who leads a health and wellness platform, I am always striving to do better...including recovery. I allowed myself more to time to sleep in this weekend, didn't over stack my days, and truly enjoyed hosting my family brunch
As you start to rev up again for the week, be mindful of where you schedule recovery, and how you set yourself up to go to sleep at night. I have included an article about your going to bed routine, a great drink for pre-bed , and a piece from the BBC about 2026 and the year of JOMO (Joy of Missing OUT)
