Comment réussir à trouver du temps pour soi quand on est débordée by Hôtel★★★ Restaurant gourmand Coco Lodge Majunga.

The full pep's Joanne Tatham coach tells us with good humour how a little more order in our lives, and better to live – simply. It warns you : no miracle recipe (who doesn't) but real life tips. To the top !

Manage his job, its torque, her girlfriends, his family, her children, his life of woman / man, its administrative papers, sport, passions, his appointment, desires, his desires, his health,… When you are a human being, our minds sometimes turns into a huge wall of post-it with 100 000 Tips to organize as can be, and frankly, Some days, makes we want to yell STOP and release about to go live on a deserted island (with a hammock and a good mojito).

OK, the plan “I loose everything-mojito”, It's very tempting but in fact 1/ It's complicated, 2/ It would quickly draw emergency flares so it tears off to our trouble. Then specifically, EH, It is how to manage ? Phew, the sparkling coach Joanne Tatham, author of “I quit the superfluous!”, We give tips to better organize our lives and put more peps! Oh yeah.

1/ I decide to live a life that suits me better. “OK, There are all - some more than others- many obligations in our lives, and even more so when you have children. But to do not explode, to blow and know what is important to us, It is our survival to take a little time for yourself. For this, It is necessary to want, deeply, and decide. Deciding to live this more balanced life, We will have to make some choices, not be perfect in all (which is impossible anyway). There is a tendency to underestimate our power of decision and action in our lives and get lost too. Then, decide to put everything on the table, look at what matters for us and work to our balance to us.”

2/ I agree to not be perfect. “Perfection ? Given that there is only 24 hours in a day, It is impossible to achieve ! If you want to be 100% perfect in his job, There is a risk of neglecting our privacy, What will fall back us on, stress us, grieve us and make us less efficient on the job ! Vice versa, If it invests too much in our lives of couple or family while there are plenty of pro and personal projects in our head, There is a risk to feed resentment, which may impair our home. The most important for a child, is this not to have happy parents, rather than perfect ? Then, perfection ? Non. But the balance : Yes ! It is a work of balancing act, requires listening to itself, the letting go, to ask how it feels, what you want and how to get there. Where the importance of granting of “moments to oneself”.”

3/ I set myself frames. “Do not make assumptions on what may think others. Often, is turned their gaze before us while in fact, It is completely mistaken on what they have in mind. Small sample that comes from my husband : front, with his family, He had the custom to go every Sunday dining in the grandmother (believing make him happy), What l ’ prevented enjoy his weekend and rest. One day, He spoke, and to his surprise, his grandmother told him that in fact, These meals also depleted it and that she preferred being alone some Sundays ! Conclusion : ask the boundaries is essential for self, and it is by doing so that we can also better listen to others. And then, can not make or just accept. To be a minimum free and well in his boots and his life, fixed frames, within which will flourish and unleash our potential.”

4/ I give myself moments alone to me. “Obviously, When you are overbooked, We are not necessarily going to take an hour every day. But we can insert in our daily life's small moments. It can be a stroll after work, during the break already, a good bath, one time facing our diary or even a shopping weekend meeting (as long as it compensates not to death sinking into excess !). And the most important : It is doing so without blame and - again- to set frameworks. One can for example note a moment of pause in our agenda, or try meditation (even if that 5 minutes) ! In addition to recharge our batteries, This time allows us to see more clearly. Exit an hour with her girlfriends when it crashes to a folder to make the next day can air us spirit and give us the necessary energy for better carburer then.”

The exercise of Joanne Tatham to, now
“Get out your calendars and set yourself an appointment during the week with yourself or / and with loved ones who are dear to you. It can be a ride, a movie to watch at the movies, in bed in pajamas… You can see what really makes you good ! If you have difficulty seeing your life partner, attach all a moment to recover and spend an evening in two, without children, at a pace that is possible (Once a month for example).”
