We all need self care.
We cannot count on others to take care of us. This is our own responsibility.
Finding time to take care of ourselves can be hard. We have an astronomical amount to do everyday. Whether you are raising children or building a company, there is tons to do at every second of everyday. We try to cram 26 hours into a 24 hour day. That's without time for eating, sleeping, or going to the bathroom. We live in a society that is always about more; more productivity, more time at work, more tasks. We have to step out of this cycle and realize that taking time for self care is important and necessary in order to accomplish more and to live a healthier life.
Self-care can be as simple as taking 5 minutes to sit in silence or listen to music. It can be attending a yoga class. It can be sitting on the toilet reading a book so that your kids don't bother you. It can be giving yourself a face mask. It could be meditating or taking a long, hot shower. Self-care is anything that relaxes you and gives you time to re-energize. It can be anything. What is self-care for one person could be excruciating and awful for another person. Self-care is personal.
Have a great Wednesday!
