This week’s self-care tip is to take the scenic route. We’re always in a hurry to get somewhere and forget to just take some time and be in the moment. At the weekend I often like to walk out to the supermarkets with Jenson rather than get the bus out and back quickly. I had to get the bus to St Ives the other day and it just so happened that the open top bus showed up while we were waiting, so we jumped on that instead. Sure, the journey was longer, but we got to see more along the way and take in the beautiful Cornish scenery. Sometimes it’s worth skipping the more direct route.
Do you always pick the quickest route in life?

Hi Emma!
That is such a beautiful view! I don’t usually take the quickest route in life especially since I was a bad procrastinator for a long time. I definitely will choose longer routes to see the better views.

I think it probably also stems from the fact that the only chance I get to read now is on bus journeys.
