We're all investors whether we know it or not. Most people identify investing with retirement, buying a house, putting money into shares or superannuation so that you can reap the benefits later<\/em>.\u00a0Everyday you invest your time and attention in the tasks that you do- watching TV when you get home is an investment of your time. The busy lifestyle many of us live today can make us feel like we have little time to actually invest in ourselves and our health. Your health is the one thing that could actually make a difference as to how much you enjoy retirement, the house, and the money to go travelling. What was it all for if you can't do anything with it? Aside from that, why not make sure you enjoy life right now, in the present instead of planning on doing all the fun stuff later.<\/p>\n

How do you invest in yourself?<\/h2>\n
Sometimes we get so caught up doing things for others we forget how to look after ourselves. Here's a few things you may or may not be doing already.<\/p>\n
\n
read a book each night<\/li>\n
meditate<\/li>\n
exercise: run, swim, climb, ski, yoga<\/li>\n
go for a walk<\/li>\n
eating better food<\/li>\n
have a massage<\/li>\n
get a treatment<\/li>\n
have a facial<\/li>\n
educate yourself in a new skill<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
It may seem indulgent and selfish but it's probably one of the best things you can do for yourself.\u00a0When we invest in our health we allow our body to function at it's optimum\u00a0to feel pain free, energised and alive. When our mind and body is in flow this is often reflected in other areas of our lives- work, relationships, money etc… If life seems to be putting up roadblocks have a look at how much you invest in yourself. See something on the list you've thought about and not let yourself do? Don't scrimp and save wishing for a better life later. Invest in yourself and reap the benefits now. Give it a go and see what changes for you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
