We live in a fast-paced world. It seems that there is something going on every second of the day. Because of this, it can be easy to forget about number one, until we have complete run ourselves into the ground. Obviously, that is a scenario we would all like to avoid! With that in mind, read on to discover some of the key signs that your body needs a rest and you need some TLC.

You are moody – Time to be honest: do you feel irritable and find that you are snapping at people more than usual? If so, this could be because you need a good rest. If your body is not happy, your mind is not going to be happy either. A healthier lifestyle can help to boost your outlook if you are suffering from PMS, depression or anxiety. A low mood can easily manifest due to nutrient deficiencies, lack of proper elimination, and hormonal imbalances. Have you considered a wellness retreat?

Cravings – Do you find that you hear cookies and muffins calling your name at around 2 pm in the afternoon? Cravings tend to mean one of two things. Either you are pregnant or your blood sugar levels are all over the place. Eat a balanced combination of carbs, fats and proteins every three hours to keep your blood sugar levels stable. A high-carb lunch can typically cause the mid-afternoon slump that leads to these unhealthy cravings.

Spiritual signals – Some people reading this will be spiritually connected, others may not be interested in this sort of thing. If you fall into the latter camp and you believe in angel numbers, there are some sequences that tell you that you need a break. A good example of this is the sequence ‘223’ – this is a message to take care of yourself. You can find out more about the meaning of 888, 432, and all of the other angel numbers online.

Low energy – Last but not least, this is one of the most evident signals that your body needs a break. While feeling tired is normal at the end of a long day, you should not experience continual exhaustion. Do you have between six and eight hours sleep yet wake up feeling tired? This is your body telling you it needs a bit of TLC.

So there you have it: the key signs that you need to take a break. After all, we all get tired and stressed from time-to-time, and we all deserve a chance to recharge and relax! Recognising that you need to step away from the hustle and bustle of your daily life and take some me-time can be difficult. But, if you have noticed any of the signs above, then you know you definitely should!
