This week, we are changing gear.
The heat is a perfect excuse to shift into low and take advantage of all those vacation auto-replies. Schools out for the summer and the entire city is little bit quiet.
Given the speed at which we generally function, the weather provides a direct reminder of the importance of scheduling time for rejuvenation. Many are enjoying time away.
There are ways to break the routine with a change of scenery and Hong Kong provides a most dynamic range of options. For best results, return to life in the fast lane with a new rhythm. Find the little reminders of a gentler pace that surround us in our daily routine.
We will find no shortage of excuses to keep us from the beach or the trails or the woods or the waterfalls. Taking a minute to weigh the benefits may find us packing a kit and catch the next bus, train or boat that transports us into the great, green outdoors.
Where will you shift into relax?
Naturally,
Kinzie
