Take a Staycation
It’s holiday time. Time to STEP OUT of the rat race, the wheel of overwhelm or the rut of trying to get it all done, and take a STAYCATION.
You are constantly worrying about your children being the best they can be, so why not do the same for you!
Find your flow by connecting with nature or losing yourself in a new challenge or activity to destress.
According to Mihaly Csikszentmihaly, ‘The best moments in our lives are not the passive, receptive, relaxing times… the best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is stretched.’
Stretch the family this school holidays with adventure, exploration, inspiration or through creative expression.
