Today is the first weekend in about 4 weeks that I have nothing planned.

It has been a very productive last 4 weeks, and I am very grateful for every opportunity.

I have entered a bodybuilding comp and am now working on growth phase, so I am still working out Monday to Friday, cardio three times a week, steps to get in and practising posing.

I also was interviewed on the couch about my song Rise, which was a great experience. You can watch that on YouTube or Foxtel.

Last weekend was one of my niece’s 21^st birthday and then Mother’s Day.

I also had a session with my music mentor and am working on one of my songs, Another Summer and Butterflies. We are getting this ready to record.

Also, I am working in my role as a primary school Chaplain five days a week, which I love.

Today is a day of rest, one where I am staying home for the whole day. There is still meal prepping to organise, steps to get in and things to do around the house. Working on my website as well.

Recovery is important, rest days are important and slowing down is important.

What do you do to relax and look after yourself?

What is one thing that you could plan today, even for 30 minutes?

Take the time to rest, take the time to recharge and take the time to look after yourself.

I would love to hear from you about how you rest.
