me-time
Solo relaxation period
Me-time is time spent alone doing what you enjoy, free from work and social obligations.
The word emphasizes personal restoration—reading, bathing, napping, whatever recharges you: I need some me-time after this week.
It implies that solitude is not just acceptable but necessary for wellbeing.
