We were born playing and resting. Work came later. But all are important, in balance, for a good life.

We were born playing and resting. Work came later. But all are important, in balance, for a good life.
Everyday living automatically gives us stresses. We need to balance our response wisely.
To have a mentally healthy day, we are wise if we ‘sculpt’ our time, consciously managing our activities.
We can become self-balancing beings, moderating the extremes that make us suffer, and enjoying better mental health.
We all need “me time” to restore ourselves. If our job or family is unsympathetic to this, we may need to signpost our needs.
We are beings of balance. Rest is whatever compensates for, or is ‘opposite to’, an activity.
