Take Time to Relax to Restore Your Creative Juices
Writing, though inactive in terms of physical activity, plays a great strain on your brain. A mental break is the only cure. Welcome to National Relaxation Day!
Mental activity wears me out like physical activity cannot. Physical activity just means that I will plant it on the couch and do nothing. Mental fatigue means that I cannot function. Thinking is hard. Moving is hard. Concentrating is impossible. That’s why a holiday like National Relaxation Day is so important.
As a writer and freelancer, I am very cognizant of my mental state. I know when I’m fried. I know when trying to write another word is pure torture. I love writing. I certainly don’t want to push the envelope to a point where I will dread it.
Today, make it a point to unplug. No Internet. No email. No phones. Live in the present and give your mind a much needed vacation.
