Vitamin relaxation is essential… Take care of yourself.

Rest is very essential to everyone. The body is made in such a way that regular night time sleep and other intermittent rest helps the proper functioning of the body. Last year, I came to the conclusion that vitamin relaxation is very essential. As we are not wired like robots, taking rest is essential for our normal body functioning. God the creator of the world rested from all His work. After six busy days of creation, He rested on the seventh day. On the seventh day of creation, God did no work and this should inform us of the need to have a day of rest. By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done. (Genesis 2:2‭-‬3) Sometimes, the pressure of making money to meet our insatiable needs forces us to overwork the body. Imagine working 9-12 hours daily from Monday to Sunday. It is possible to get used to the routine but that does not give one time to rest well and ensure that the body hibernates from the active work. It is so easy to keep going with everything until the body gives up. We should not wait for the doctors to prescribe rest as a medical alternative for us. We need to have contingent plans to include rest in our weekly routine. Taking a rest is not a recipe for laziness and having rest as part of your schedule doesn’t mean you are lazy. Imagine being told that your body is so tired that you need bed rest at a health facility. All your dreams are stalled. You cannot go anywhere and you cannot do all the things you desire. This year, be very conscious of taking rest. If you are able to take some time off like annual vacation, please do and do not deny yourself the opportunity to rest well while you are active and kicking. Do not be hard on yourself. The bills definitely will have to be paid but you cannot sacrifice your body all the time. Be kind to yourself and relax when possible. Do you need motivation to slow down? Remember this…. “By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.” (Genesis 2:2‭-‬3) God rested and so must you! Happy New Year
