If you cannot remember the last time, you had a girl’s night out, you will want to want to plan one ASAP. Why woman should spend time together with their girlfriends and it is not just for the wine and laughs. Truth, researchers have found that women’s overall health and well-being improved when they spent time with friends at least once a week. I get it, you are busy with career obligations, family responsibilities, social commitments and more, all vying for your attention and it can become overwhelming. You would love to go out, but the thinking brain says, I do not have the time, just to go out with the girls for a fun night.  Maybe a guilty feeling leaving your significant other and/or children or if you have not finished the crazy to do list (which, by the way will never be finished) have you respond with “Not now” maybe next week.  Well, I am here to tell you if not now, then when. There is no better time to focus on your needs, stop pushing back on what is important for your health! The healthier you are the better able you are to meet all those demands. 

Per scientific research, the health benefits from these regular friend dates include a stronger immune system, faster recovery times from illness, a decrease in anxiety and an increase in generosity. The optimal way to make the most of these benefits is to meet up with friends. There is nothing better than getting together for a wine down Wednesday, laughing together, sharing stories listening, connecting, —these activities buffer the body biochemically and immunologically against the kinds of coughs, colds and illnesses of everyday life.

It Is fact, Girl’s night out helps: to reduce stress, decreases depression and helps in coping with everyday situations.  Despite all the benefits, the study found that only two out of five women have the time to go out with friends once a week and that number decreases if you have children at home. I believe that number is even less.  This is crazy, that woman put themselves last in overall well-being.  The truth, you need to make the time, I know it may not be easy, but at least twice a month you deserve to care for you!  Clearly making the effort for a Girls night out is worth your health. I am ready if you are.

Cheers!  Reach out and connect to your friends as if your life dependent on it! 

Have an aMAEzing Time!
