When need to learn to listen to our body, this means identifying the difference between being lazy, being unmotivated, emotionally fatigued and physically fatigued.

While some people may have mastered the being lazy situation, not doing anything due to excuses or justifications to yourself or others, we need to learn to identify when to stop and relax.
While this may seem pretty obvious, it’s a skill we need to re acquaint ourselves with. Try getting the work/life balance under control today.

If you fail to listen to your body, sooner or later your body will take it’s own initiative in the form of getting the flu from being run down, low immune responses to infection or disease, or being so fatigue that you are forced to “down tools” and do nothing, as you lack the energy to even get out of bed in severe cases.

We need to learn the ancient art of how to learn to listen to your body and relax.
I’m not talking about relaxing at every opportunity but striking a balance between work, rest and play.

If we continually push ourselves, we are constantly evoking the “Fight” response in our bodies, while we may not being chase by a sabre tooth tiger, we are in survival mode.
Deadlines and pressures at the office, rushing home to spend time with the kids, cleaning the house, taking the kids to sports and other activities, domestic chores, checking your emails, socialising with friends, go, go, go and on top of that your exercise program and training schedule with less than 8 hours of sleep.

So where is your “Me time”?
Our society is becoming chronically fatigued, tiredness, lack of energy, emotionally drained.

Why there is much debate about the chronic fatigue syndrome, we have to ask ourselves are we getting enough time in our busy schedules to relax and unwind.

Eventually, some of us will see the results of continually pushing ourselves. Ultimately our health should be number 1, not work or other commitments as one person once said “When your lying at the hospital, close to death, are you really thinking about all those great moments at the office working”

Try to make some changes in your life and change the patterns in your life, otherwise if you don’t relax and unwind your health will suffer.
