Alone time and life

Hi Karen, It's healthy to find time to be alone with ourselves. It will keep our sanity in-tuck. i used to do this to recharge my energies and at the same time clear my mind. i pray a lot and keep myself relax. i love being with myself. time to commune with my soul and heart. it's a self affirmation for me giving myself and i together.

wHEN I WORKED & my kids were still at home i had to have a little time to myself so i got up early every morning to do that. Now that's all i have.

Hi peacefulWmn, I need some alone time each day. If too many days go by without it, I turn into a bear! There was a time when I had 3 of my girls at home and worked full time 2nd shift and also took care of my little grandson so his mom could work. It took quite a bit of creative thinking to find an ounce of alone time ever. I managed tho. Sometimes it would be late at night even just an hour of reading or getting on the computer helped. I felt better losing an hours sleep than had I gone without having that time.

I read, I watch TV, I get online... Sometimes I even manage to do it without getting interrupted for 15 minutes. I also volunteer at a no kill cat rescue. Petting the kitties is good therapy (even if I am allergic). :-)

hi karen madam, if i have leisure time,i will attend net and doing mylot discussions,giving responses,trekpay adds and other things in the net,if still i have leisure time i will watch tv and daily i am reading news paper and walking in the home itself,have a nice day

yes, I sometimes do polish my toenails and my fingernails, listen to music, read any books, blow dry my hair. I always have much time..I'm just at home all day, taking care of my three year old son, and I enjoy it, spending time with my little one, makes me feel like a fulfilled woman.

Well I have alone time now But when I was working and the Children where Younger, no matter what time I went to bed I would always have half an hour downtime before I went to sleep if the Ex Husband was home I would stay downstairs and have it but it was rare he was in the bed which suited me fine lol Every Night I would have that half an hour

Mine is very early in the Morning before anyone is up. I use it for prayer and then I watch the painting lessons and cooking lessons on PBS. This seems to be a good start to the day for me.

I do agree with you!It's always wonderful to spend some quiet moment with ourselves because it is our due to feel good while savoring peaceful time alone. Personally I spend most of my time in my room alone, writing stories in my journal and editing my works in the laptop. I choose to be alone while doing writing and researching stuff to concentrate.

For me I have found that it is only possible for it to happen when the rest of my family is in bed. So, I find my alone time for about an hour each night after my husband and my children have gone to bed. What I do with my time really depends on my mood. Sometimes I will just take an hour and scrapbook with no one there to nag me with questions every single minute. Sometimes I will take a hot bath with some of my favorite bubble bath and a good book. Other times I will watch television for an hour that doesn't have to do with dirty jobs, myths, or children singing.

Before I had to move back in with the parents, I had lots of alone time, which I used to study, watch films, read books and just generally do stuff when I had no arrangements with any friends or family. I felt like I could just relax and unwind without being judged on my actions

My alone time is every night during weekdays, when I am alone in my bedroom in the city. I hang out with my family every weekend. I appreciate time alone because it makes me productive. I usually read, reflect and decorate my room when I am alone. I have not been enjoying it that much because sometimes I feel lonely. But I appreciate how being alone makes me in independent and stronger.

hello)Life is given by god.when i m free i listen music,play games on laptop.I want my life full of enjoy and have no tenson............

I agree to that. We really need to have at least an hour or two of alone time and life. Everyday I take care of the kids,their needs and everything,the household chores etc.So its really tiring so once a week i make sure that i spend an hour or two inside the bathroom feeling the freshness of water with soft music and aroma scent candles to unwined myself and its really works on me .

Hiya Karen! 15 minutes that sounds like pure bliss! I very rarely get time alone and I crave it, because I don't like being around people and need peace and silence sometimes I have to wait till I am driving because that is one of the only sancturies I have left, I am lost without my car it's my independence and my escape in it I can go anywhere! I hate noise and even a dog barking, or children screaming irritates me and I guess I have a low tolerance zone for noise and sometimes people! If I have time alone I like to read, contemplate, work on the computer or even draw when my mind is on it, I used to write a lot of poetry in my darker days, ironically I used to have a lot of my time when my ex was at work, now where I live I hardly get any but I am still much happier to be away from my ex. I would love to be on my own desert island for a week providing I had my home comforts of course and away from any other living soul or creature.

I think, I get lot of time alone. I get up early in the morning, this is the time when I am alone after that I hardly find any time alone until I get back to my bed. And yeah during work hours I get lot of free time with my work.

i can get my alone time as long as i want specially when i am taking a rest in our room. i will play my video games or just read a magazine. my wife gets her alone time in the bathroom also. its a big NO NO to knock while she is in there. she will get mad if i do that. well of course except for emergency. she said she want to relax while taking a bath so knocking at the door wont make her feel relax. when she wants to watch something on dvd and our son is taking a nap i give her space to watch. awhile ago she was watching its complicated and she was crying har har har. cute

i think that quite place fit for me.because i often like to think about something and write what i want in quite place,noisy sound disturb my thought and work,i would not finish it.sometimes i hope to think about my future,what i have finish someting or not.it is important for me to think about owned life,this need quite place to think about alone,because the private life is not easy to finish,i often met many difficulties and setback,i need alone time to peace my feeling and give me time to adhere to my belief again.

Everyone needs some solitude time - time to be alone and away from the usual din of daily life. Sometimes, my wife will bring the kids out to buy some groceries, or to the playground, while I choose to stay at home. After they are gone, the house becomes unusually quiet and I will simply sit back and relax on the sofa. Sometimes I would play some jazz music and indulge in the calmness and serenity. Yes, we do need some special time for ourselves once in a while.

I think everyday we need a little alone time to do some personal things.If we have a low temper,we need a quiet place and alone time to relax and thinking.and we need a alone time to take a SPA,listen music,read novel.I enjoy alone time very much.
