Relax and Be Stress Free
My summer schedule this year has been extremely hectic. I feel like I’ve been going from one thing to the next each day. As I mentioned in a previous blog, I have been helping with my younger brother’s junior high baseball team. Working with those little guys Monday-Friday for 2 hours each day can really stress you out! Yesterday I was driving home from practice with a huge headache, feeling like a grouch, and all sorts of stressed about doing it all again today.
As I was driving I thought to myself there is no need to be stressed over this. I said to myself, “You’re doing what you love and teaching other kids to love the game as well.” So I needed a change of pace and a little relaxation. I decided to turn on the local christian radio station and I just let all my stresses fly away in that 30 minute drive home. There is so much you miss when you’re stressed out and it doesn’t make things easy on the people around you when you are a grouch.
Sometimes in life I think we need to just take a step back and relax. Whether it’s a meditation or quiet time where you can reflect and let your worries leave you, it helps to just refocus on the important things in life. We often times miss the little things and some of the most important things in our family’s lives. I think it is good to remember not to take what we have for granted and the best way to realize this is by taking a step or two back and looking around. There is no sense going through life stressed out! Relax and let joy and peace find you.
