And yet, a quick reboot, or a reset, always seems to work wonders. In addition, the same can be said for our brains too; overworking and stress can make us slow and hard to work with! ME time works as a great way to reboot and helps us start afresh!

4. Improves our concentration.

ME time can be easier to hunt down than you may think! A good, hot bath can sometimes be enough to let you soak your troubles away and allow yourself the chance to relax and unwind because we all need it every now and then.

Why not put some time aside right now? For instance, light some candles, turn on some ambient music, grab a glass of wine, run yourself a bath, turn off your phone, pop in a bath bomb and give yourself half an hour to switch off and take a step back from your busy schedule!

Give yourself the time you deserve! Remember that there is still a little me in tiME.
