20 Minutes of Quiet Time

From the moment the alarm goes off and until our head hits the pillow at night our days can be full of noise. We get into the gym the phone rings, a client needs something, email needs answered, workouts need planned and so our day continues until we leave for the day. But it doesn't end there, on our way home we need to stop at the store and pick up a few things, figure out what's for dinner, pick up the kids and drop them off somewhere else.

Our days are noisy and busy and we need to learn to take a 20 minute breather once a day to stay fresh. This 20 minute period can be a nap, meditation session, a walk through the woods or park, or even just sitting outside on the patio enjoying the day. It really doesn't matter how you get your 20 quiet minutes in it just needs to be something where you can get away from everything and everyone for a short period of time. This means no iPhone, iPad, computer, TV, radio, etc. Just you and your thoughts.

This 20 minute period while help clear your head and keep you performing at a high level of productivity.
