donde inspira hablar de nuestra experiencia sobre el descanso, sin pensarlo decidí participar en esta gran actividad además nos dejó unas hermosas palabras para relajarnos y desconectarnos unos minutos de las cosas pendientes, la verdad que al leerlo me sentí mejor.
Hello community days ago I came across this initiative by
I consider rest as a pause with oneself, that is not only rest is about sleeping but disconnecting with everything around you that includes technology because we think that sitting with the phone we are resting but we are wrong because our brain is not, we have to keep in mind that when taking a break we have to put aside the technology.
Although since I became a mom the word rest did not exist for me, the truth is that I had a year where I slept less than 6 hours, I never stopped, however one day my body told me I can't continue with the pace you are going; my dark circles under my eyes were so big that even when they called me by video call they were amazed at how agitated I looked, my family was very worried because it seemed that I was sick but in reality it was my body asking for a rest.
However, I felt it was impossible to take a break since I am alone in another country with my husband who works all day, arrives practically at night and to tell him to stay with the child was as if I did not understand him who was also exhausted, but who understood me the answer is simple no one.
I am not going to lie to you, my days were eternal, I felt that my body did not respond, I even lost more weight than I imagined, my hair was falling out so much that I got worried; at that moment I asked myself what I was doing with my life, then I decided to stop for a moment and take a break, disconnect from the world, I needed to do it for me, besides I was not performing the days as I used to.
Because of that I began to plan my days, that is to say to look for the best strategy to be able to rest, that implied to take advantage of the time where my son slept usually he sleeps from 13 hours to 15 hours, because I never took advantage of that moment, I simply thought that I had to do the homework at home however I did not think about me which was a big mistake.
Now it doesn't matter if I have dirty dishes they can wait, it doesn't matter if I have a mountain of clothes I feel that it can wait, I learned that everything can be done including rest since it is favorable to continue with a healthy life and perform the day because if we don't do it we will feel heavy and we can even get sick.
From my experience of not resting nowadays I manage the moment to have a rest time at the moment of putting my son to sleep, I have approximately 3 hours for me which I make the most of it, without a doubt the first thing I do is to sleep since for me that is fundamental, I recharge energy also sometimes I get up and he is still asleep, what I do is to take a shower; for me this is the most relaxing thing in the world, I can also do it before so I go to bed more relaxed. Since I started taking a break I feel like a different person with good energy.
Finally I want to tell you that we must have a space to relax, if the best option is to sleep do not hesitate to do it because someday the body will ask for it, let's not wait for that to happen, at least a few minutes is more than enough to continue the day with the best attitude.
