Sunday Recharge
Dancers, like so many others, work indoors and work long
hours. This takes a toll on health – particularly mental health – and
happiness. Especially for those who work in windowless offices or studios,
taking time to be outdoors in natural light is important.
This is all a part of a human being’s need to recharge. Each
individual will do this differently. Some people recharge by being socially
engaged and spending time with people. Others need time alone to reflect and
relax. Whatever it is that works for you, plan time in your schedule to do it.
I also recommend spending time outdoors. There is something
restorative about walking in the woods and listening to wind in the trees, or
strolling along the beach and smelling the salt air. Make this a priority and
put it on your daily calendar. You’ll feel better and come back to work with renewed
inspiration.
From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:
Secret #73:
“Take time to recharge.”

out for you when you take time to relax, refresh, restore and recharge your
soul.”
