What have you done today to take care of you?

We live in a world that is constantly on the move. We hit the snooze button a few times on our alarm and then we jump out of bed to start a day that is go-go-go until we fall into bed at night just to start all over again in the morning. I dare you to pause for just a second and consider- What have you done today to take care of you? Think about that. When was the last time you sought out to do something that prioritized your wellbeing? On those days when you feel stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, and downright run down; do you feel guilty for wanting time to rejuvenate yourself? We have been conditioned to think that the care of self is selfish. It is important to remember that you can’t give away what you don’t have. If you push yourself until you have nothing left to give, you aren’t much good to yourself or anyone else. It is ok to take time for yourself. It is ok to admit that you can’t do it all. It is ok to ask for help. When you neglect to give your mind, body, and spirit the attention it needs you are limiting your access to having a healthy and fulfilled life. I challenge you to find what you need in order to fall in love with taking care of yourself- Mind. Body. and Soul.
