What Do You Do to Stop That Hamster From Running All Day

I am a curious soul as stated in a previous post,"How did you end up where you're at today" so my mind is always on the go. I'm like that hamster you've seen constantly spinning his wired wheel. Turning over and over but sometimes I have to step off and give the wheel a break. Poor wheel.

Actually it's me who needs to remind myself to step back and "just give myself permission" to relax. To take it all in and not get overwhelmed in whatever task is at hand.

I've practiced meditation
 on many occasion and it always helps. It's just remembering to do this on a regular basis that I seem to have trouble with. When I get up I like to take about 10 minutes each day and just find some quiet time to search for that inner peace I need. I don't always have to do this as soon as I get up, but before my hamster wheel gets to spinning and distracts me, it's important. Important to say my pleases in the morning and some thank yous at night before I lay my ole body down.

What are some ways you find relaxation. Do you meditate or seem to have a hard time finding some quiet time. Is it important to you. Please leave me a comment and let us know. Retweet/Facebook if you like. Thanks
