You Are the Most Important Person

Thirty minutes a day is all it takes to get closer to optimizing your health. I really need you to look at your daily life – are you getting thirty minutes for yourself? If not, it’s time to start.

You are the most important person in the room, and if you can’t find thirty minutes a day, you are doing yourself a great disservice. I understand how putting everything and everyone else above you is so much easier, but trust me when I say that thirty minutes of time for you makes all the difference in the world.

Thirty Minutes to Optimal Health

How can you clear out your limiting beliefs and useless thoughts to give yourself mental clarity and space? When you do that, you’ll want to have more than thirty minutes for yourself. But thirty minutes is the goal.

In thirty minutes, you can spend time on one or more areas of your optimal health. Physical, mental, social, and emotional health can all become optimized when you spend time on them… and all you need is thirty minutes daily.

I am a better person when I commit these thirty minutes to myself. I’m more emotionally regulated, present, productive, and less reactive. Take this time for yourself. Encourage others to take thirty minutes for themselves, too.

Do you have 30 minutes a day for yourself? If not, I want you to examine your excuses and start prioritizing yourself. You deserve this time. You need this time. Let me know in the comments below how you’re giving yourself back this time.
