The Importance of Me Time + Great Ways to Spend It

This semester I have been super busy and I have had to make a conscious effort of allowing myself some "me time."I am known to fall into the pit that is go-go-going and not taking break until I've broken down. Sometimes the realization of how overwhelming school and activities can be leave me laughing but sometimes I feel absolutely exhausted. Because of these experiences I've truly grasped the importance of finding "me time."

I am constantly surrounded by others and I am aware that this is a common trend for college students. For me though, I am living on a hall that is made up solely of members of my pledge class meaning I always have an abundance of people to talk to, friends to watch movies with, and people to receive advice from. This, can be a double-edged sword in the sense that wanting to constantly be with them can leave you drained because of a lack of solo time. 

I definitely regain my energy from time spent alone. This would definitely classify me as an introvert so solo time is especially important for me. Sidenote… introvert and extrovert do not necessarily correlate with whether or not you enjoy being around other people but instead relate to how you regain your energy, I feel like this is a common misconception people have. Checkout my absolute favorite ways to spend your personal "me time" recharging below!

  1. Love your post! It is so important to get some 'me time' in everyday. I had a struggle doing that when I was in college. So much going on and I felt like there weren't enough hours in the day. I would try to be really productive with my work during the day so after dinner I could get some things done and then just relax in bed, watch tv, paint my nails, and blog! Hope my tips help!

  2. I lived on the sorority hall my senior year, and it was my first experience with having an in-room roommate. I definitely understand your need for alone time! Sometimes I would shower at 3 am or stay in when everyone else was going out just to have a little time for myself. Great list!

  3. Love this post! Although I'm not in college, I still find it hard to find "me" time as a high school senior. School, work, friends, and internships can be so overwhelming! It's super important to dedicate time for yourself.

  7. There are some of the good points to consider with and hopefully this would indeed help us in transcribing various other aspects as well, so professional doctors will indeed find it a great deal for them.
