Introduction

When life gets overwhelming sometimes it’s good to take a step back. Take a break. And have a do-nothing day.

How would life change for you if every now and then you had a Do-Nothing Day? That’s right. Just do nothing! 

 While talking to my friend the other day I told her I was having a do-nothing day.  It was the day I got up.  Had my coffee.  Read my Bible and wrote in my journal. Looked at my desk and went back to bed.

I wasn’t feeling down or lazy.  But I felt like my brain was twisted up like a pretzel.  Life seemed a jumble.

I didn’t feel like doing any work.

I didn’t want to meditate.  I just wanted to rest and not think about anything. 

Hence my Do-Nothing Day.  

This day I didn’t answer emails (minimal checking as well). Didn’t post on social media. Or even worry about what I was missing out on.

I just did nothing.

Except.

I lose myself in a romance novel.  Nothing juicy.  I don’t like those.  I like romance novels with a plot. Love the ones with a SEAL hero.  And it should be based on Christian values.  My preference.

But your Do Nothing Day could include a little bit of self-care.  If that’s what doing nothing looks like for you.  Sometimes my Do Nothing Day includes a trip to the spa, sauna, or steam room.  But you can stay home and pamper yourself with products that make you feel better inside and out. Light a candle. Soak in the tub. Whatever you want.

So when you are feeling overwhelmed. When you’ve hit a wall.  

Have yourself a Do Nothing Day.  You’ll feel better. 

But it only works if you lose the guilt!
