Just imagine if you didn't plug in your mobile phone regularly? It would soon be completely flat and of no use to you.
Well, we human beings are just the same. However, we are need different types of recharge (and we are much more complicated than your mobile phone).
There are three aspects of recharging:
Physically, we need a regular intake of good food and drink and a good level of movement to keep our physical bodies in peak condition. This includes:
- Exercising
- Eating healthy
- Taking a bath or shower
Mentally, we need to have regular rest and relaxation (to offset the draining from your work/life experiences). This includes:
- Getting enough sleep
- Taking breaks
- Spending time outside
Spiritually, we need to be regularly spiritually filled - and for me this comes from faith that comes from The Word of God. This includes:
- Practicing mindfulness
- Connecting with others
- Practicing gratitude
- Journalling
