One important key to effective blog marketing is to keep your brain clean and fresh. By that I mean, it’s easy to fall into ruts and become bored and boring.

While routine and structure keep us on track, we need to “get out of our own yard” and get out of the office for renewal and regeneration. I’m reading Tony Schwartz new book “The Way We’re Working Isn’t Working.”

He talks about four areas essential to over all success: physical, emotional,  mental and spiritual. He argues that nothing is gained—and much is lost—by constantly pushing to achieve more and more in less time and with fewer resources. Rejuvenation and rest are necessary for creative breakthroughs and broader perspectives.

With that in mind, and armed with my Kindle, my yoga mat, and a few friends, I’m taking off to Melaque beach for a yoga retreat. This blog and gmail will be doing a Savasana – corpse pose – of complete relaxation. I’ll be back next week.

Namaste…
