New Years Resolutions

Seems like everyone's New Years resolutions are the same: lose weight, save more money, etc. How about a different approach this year? Make your resolution to live a more balanced life. We all wish we had more time to exercise, spend with our family, finish the project at work, etc. But the truth is that we all have the same 24 hours a day. Why not spend a little time doing all of them? The pressure we put on ourselves to accomplish everything everyday is becoming overwhelming to the point of exhaustion. Taking the time to treat yourself to a massage once a month, or some "me" time by meditating, even if only for 5-10 minutes a day. As part owner of Schafer Chiropractic and Healing Spa, one would think I would take the time to get a massage at least once per month. Yet even myself, someone who knows all the great benefits of massage, only took the time twice in the past 12 months. The best resolution is to admit that you are human, and cannot do everything at once, and slow down a little bit .. and breathe.
