Are you struggling to find the best time to reconnect with yourself?

I’m willing to bet you’ve tried squeezing in self care moments, but between work, family, and life’s chaos, it’s hard to carve out real time to focus on YOU.

And when you do find a little time, it feels fleeting – just enough to remind you of what you’re missing. Let’s face it, an hour isn’t enough to truly recharge and rediscover yourself.

Don’t worry. You’re not alone.

One of the biggest challenges women face is balancing their responsibilities – work, errands, relationships, and everything else – with the much needed time to reconnect with themselves on a deeper level.

It’s hard to truly feel like yourself again when you’re running on empty, squeezing in a minute here or there to breathe, but never fully stepping into that space of reflection and renewal.

Speaking from experience, real reconnection takes intention, space, and TIME.

So how – and when – can you find enough time to reconnect with yourself? Should you do it early in the morning, during a retreat, or perhaps at night when the world is quiet?

Let’s explore the options.

Why Early Mornings Might Be The Best Time To Reconnect With Yourself

Sometimes, you need to rise with the sun.

If mornings are when you feel most clear and refreshed, starting your day with intentional self connection can be transformative.

Here are three big benefits to prioritizing reconnection first thing in the morning:

1. You start the day centered – Grounding yourself with a mindful moment sets the tone for the rest of your day, helping you move through it with purpose and calm.
2. You avoid the “too busy” trap – By putting yourself first, you won’t find yourself pushing self care to the bottom of your list.
3. Mornings establish consistency – Making mornings your go to time for journaling, meditating, or prayer means you’re building a routine that lasts.

Not a morning person? That’s ok. Adjusting to earlier starts takes time, but even just 15 minutes of quiet reflection can do wonders.

The Afternoon Reset

If mornings are off the table, early afternoons can be a great time to recharge and reflect.

It’s often the perfect “reset button” in your day – especially if you carve out dedicated time between your busiest moments.

Here’s how to make the most of an afternoon reconnect session:

• Schedule uninterrupted time. Don’t let errands or distractions creep in.
• Use lunch as a transition period. Take a mindful walk, read something inspiring, or just sit quietly before diving in.
• Reflect on your day so far. Use this time to check in with how you’re feeling and adjust your priorities.

Many women who attend my retreats say afternoons are when they feel most balanced and productive. It’s a time when energy is naturally higher, making it easier to be fully present with yourself.

Embracing Quiet Nights

If you’re a night owl – or just someone who thrives in the stillness after the world has gone to sleep – nighttime might be your perfect moment to reconnect.

When the house is quiet, and distractions fade, it’s easier to find clarity and focus. Here’s why:

1. You have uninterrupted time – Whether it’s journaling, reflecting, or dreaming about your next adventure, evenings are free from the rush of the day.
2. You can decompress – Use the time to let go of the day’s stress and prepare for a better tomorrow.
3. It’s a time of intention – Set meaningful goals, revisit your self care priorities, or simply enjoy the luxury of stillness.

Not naturally a night owl? Here’s a tip: create a relaxing evening ritual with candles, soothing music, or even reflecting on your experiences at one of my women’s retreats or boudoir sessions.

There’s No One Size Fits All Answer

Ultimately, the best time to reconnect with yourself is whenever you can fully commit to being present.

For some, it’s mornings. For others, it’s afternoons or late at night. But if you’re feeling stretched too thin and struggling to find time, sometimes the best answer is to step away entirely – even just for a weekend.

That’s exactly what my women’s retreats and boudoir sessions are designed for: to give you the space and guidance to reconnect with yourself, free from distractions.

Whether it’s waking up to the sound of nature, enjoying meaningful conversations, or rediscovering your confidence through a boudoir session, the opportunity to prioritize YOU is always worth it.
