How much time do you spend on YOU every day? 

Do you exercise regularly? Do you meditate, pray, or make time to sit quietly and think? A long, hot shower or bath can be a time to relax and let your thoughts wander. You could read personal development books or listen to motivational tapes.  Many people keep a daily journal that helps them “think” things through.

The military has been your life for so many years that when you leave it you will miss it, in spite of yourself. You will experience a sort of grieving process.

Spending a few minutes daily with activities that nourish your spirit and feed your soul will help you through the emotional stress of transition.  Start a habit of taking time every day just for YOU.  You’ll be healthier and happier for it!
