“I’m busy.”
It’s something I hear a lot in the clinic.
Work gets busy. Kids need you. Life gets full. And looking after yourself can easily move further down the list.
Sometimes that also means doing less of the things that keep you moving and feeling like yourself.
You stop going to the gym.
You put off getting back to running.
You spend less time outside.
You stop doing the things that once felt easy.
Not because you don’t care about them. There just always seems to be something else that needs your attention first.
I think it’s worth asking what being busy is quietly costing you.
What have you stopped making time for?
