To tune in to what is going on with us, we need to stop every so often take a \u201cbreather.\u201d What do our senses tell us is going on around us? Is our body in pain? What is our mood like? Are there any symptoms calling for our attention? If we notice these sorts of things, we can do something about them. It can help us catch health issues at the early stages. Other benefits of pausing to relax include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Increasing focus<\/li>\n<li>Boosting awareness to make healthy choices<\/li>\n<li>Reducing stress<\/li>\n<li>Helping to maintain interest and energy level<\/li>\n<li>Making it possible for you to do better work after you take the pause<\/li>\n<li>Decreasing your risk of the types of injuries that can happen to a person if they lose focus, like overuse injuries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We set goals for our diet, exercise, careers and many other areas in our lives, but do we think to set goals for rest and recharge? If relaxation is a challenge for you, think about ways that you can set some goals to give yourself more down-time.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to get started on your Whole Health journey, check out the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.va.gov\/WHOLEHEALTH\/Live_Whole_Health_Mobile_App.asp\">Live Whole Health mobile app<\/a>.
