This weird little gap between Christmas and New Year’s is something else 😂
Last week, I took a full week off from the gym & work and honestly, it was tougher than I expected. (I sometimes find it hard to switch off)
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed the break so much but for some reason I always feel guilty for not being as “productive” or “busy” - and I often find myself getting back into my negative self talk ways. Anyone else?
Anyway, I’m now back after the week off and as I look back, I’m really glad I took it. I needed it quite frankly. My work and life balance wasn’t right for a while and I had been honestly working myself to the ground and not always listening to things I preach myself!
I’m so thankful I gave myself time to enjoy with family.
I’m so thankful I gave myself time to write down my goals for next year
And I’m so thankful I gave myself time to really take a step back and realign with my goals and values.
I’m so excited for 2026! There’s so much fun ahead and now I’m truly feeling ready and inspired again for it.
So if you have eaten too much chocolate or missed a workout here and there this week, don’t beat yourself up. Just get back to it this week or in the new year and enjoy this weird period of resting, recovering and reevaluating!
What are your 2026 goals? I’d love to hear them!
