The Dial Does Not Only Go in One Direction

Description
Summary So many of us tend to go at full throttle all of the time. It doesn't seem to matter if it's in our personal or professional lives. In fact, if you do it in one area, odds are you will do it in all areas. If that's the case, your weekends, which many use to take a break from work, are just as busy and stressful as the weekdays, maybe even more so. This week I had a good friend ask me if I had any plans to relax or tune out this week. I don't but I should. I want to spend today talking about dialing it back on occasion and taking care of ourselves when needed.  I'll start off with a quick story about last Thanksgiving and then for this weeks Little Lift, I'll try and provide some resources that I have read or written recently. And then before I dive into the main topic, I want to review one of the personality style elements that is important to remember as you think about your own self care.
