Harris<\/strong> Summer is here. And for many of us it\u2019s a time of vacations, a time of being free from school or a slow time at work or in your business. So it\u2019s a good time to focus on taking extra good <a href=\"https:\/\/premium.positivityblog.com\/self-esteem-course\/\">care of yourself<\/a>&nbsp;to unwind, decompress and to recharge. And that\u2019s exactly what this week\u2019s article is all about. Let me share 6 of my favorite tips that I\u2019ll be using this summer. <strong>1. Just watch the clouds go by.<\/strong> During the months of continuous intense work it\u2019s easy to get trapped in the mindset that you have to do something pretty much all the time. This can add a lot of tensions and stress. So try doing nothing at all from time to time this summer. Just go for a walk in the woods. Sit by the lake and take in the wonderful landscape. Or lie down in the grass and just watch the clouds go by. Do only that, savor the moments of summer and feel how the inner tensions flow out of your body and mind. <strong>2. Disconnect for a time.<\/strong> I\u2019ll be disconnected for much of this summer. I won\u2019t go online unless it\u2019s necessary. I\u2019ll only check my emails once a day. And I\u2019ll leave my smartphone at home while I\u2019m out in the sun enjoying a book. I recommend trying this one out, especially if you tend to spend a lot of time at work or in school with being online or talking on the phone. Start by just staying away from your email and phone for maybe 6 or 12 hours. Then check them. You may see that you haven\u2019t missed much by not being available all the time. And discover that your stress levels have dropped quite a bit and it feels easier to fully focus on your family, friends or your hobby. <strong>3. Appreciate what you did between New Year\u2019s Eve and the start of this summer.<\/strong> Half of 2026 has now gone by. And there might have been some worries. Perhaps you were angry with yourself more than a few times during these 6 months. Or disappointed in what you did, didn\u2019t do or what happened in your life. When the stress and inner tensions are plentiful then it\u2019s easy to get stuck in focusing on what went wrong or on your own setbacks or mistakes. So take a break from that. Ask yourself: What can I appreciate about what I did and I accomplished during these 6 months? It doesn\u2019t always have to be big things. And be sure to appreciate what you did, the effort you put in even if things didn\u2019t go exactly as planned. <strong>4. Go slow.<\/strong> This will also dial your stress down. And, perhaps even more importantly, help you to be in the moment and to fully enjoy all the sights, sounds, smells and people of your summer. Instead of being half-lost in the future or in a memory while life and perhaps something really wonderful is happening right in front of you. <strong>5. Say no to the shoulds of summer.<\/strong> There are sneaky shoulds in life. They can make a vacation filled with things you \u201cjust have to do before the summer is over\u201d seem like draining work. And they\u2019ll leave you more tired than you were before your time off even started. Avoid them by asking yourself: Will this matter in 5 years? Or even 5 weeks? Zooming out like this makes it easier to find a healthier perspective on things and to see the real value of doing something. It makes it easier to simply relax and to say no to doing something because you realize that it frankly isn\u2019t that important anyway. <strong>6. Spend more time doing what you love.<\/strong> Maybe it\u2019s fishing. Or going out into the woods and picking berries, flowers and mushrooms. Or painting. Or reading books. Or playing with your kids or hanging out with an old friend. No matter what it might be, think about how you can fit more what you love doing into not only your summer but the rest of your 2026. Take a couple of minutes and sit down with a pen and a piece of paper. Think about what you spend your time on during a normal week. Then find 1-2 things during your regular weeks that you can spend less time on. Or things you can simply say no to so that you have a bit more time and energy over each week during the summer, fall and winter for what you love doing. <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n                                        \n                                        \n                                        <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fuente: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.positivityblog.com\/how-to-take-care-of-yourself\/\">Enlace original<\/a><\/p>\n                                        ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThen followed that beautiful season\u2026 Summer\u2026 Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.\u201d Henry Wadsworth Longfellow \u201cThe time to relax is when you don\u2019t have time for it.\u201d Sydney J.
