Occasionally and as expected, women feel overwhelmed by all the things they need to accomplish or take care of on a daily basis and based on that fact, tend to be considered moody or emotional. I suppose the opposite sex will never understand.  But to cope with a hectic schedule or a lifestyle without losing it, every woman needs to take a few hours, even if just one day a week and pamper herself.  Not only does it feel good to do it, but it is almost a requirement.

 When I get “emotional or moody” I stop whatever it is I am doing and plan out how to recharge, regroup or revive and here’s what I do:

1. Walk in my favorite neighborhood on Sunday morning by myself here
2. Pamper myself with a facial and a body massage from here
3. Go to brunch with my mother here, here or here
4. Watch old classic films, curled up on my bed on a Saturday night from here
5. Create something with my hands here, here, or here
6. Go to a café, a drive away from home and disappear in a book here, here, here, here

How do you recharge?
