It would be easy to abandon restorative practices you’ve established during summer, but that would be a mistake. Instead, prioritise these five essentials of healthy achievement:
- Rest. Practice rest by getting adequate sleep every night and avoiding work on your days off.
- Reflection. Start a habit of pulling away to a quiet place to pause and reflect. Slow down for as little as five minutes to centre yourself and reflect on your life’s direction.
- Relationships. Get intentional about building in-person relationships. This opens up a world of learning, encouragement, and accountability.
- Refreshment. Stay mindful about what you eat. Consume foods that will contribute to your productivity and be good, clean fuel - not stuff that will bog you down the rest of the day.
- Recreation. Pursue leisure activities that restore your body. Develop non-work-related interests and hobbies to give your brain the break it needs.
