Spending time alone:  as a teacher, mother and wife I barely get any time to myself...even when I am alone, I get texts from my children asking for things.  I commit to shutting off my phone for one hour every friday, tell my family it is my alone time, and sitting with myself, alone, doing something I enjoy doing!
Saying "no":  I actually started practicing this in the past year.  I usually feel guilty when I say "no"....to anything.  The first time I said "no", I felt empowered.  I am going to practice this more!
take a walk outside:  I am going to commit to this no matter what the weather is.  I am going to put in my headphones, listen to relaxing music, and enjoy the outdoors to help clear my head.
