Self Care Check!!

It’s really been on my spirit heavy, the lack of self care I have. Often times we get caught up in parenting, our relationships or just being natural givers. We develop a habit of putting everyone else first. Not realizing that the saying “you can't pour from an empty cup” is real. Visualize a tier of cups and you’re at the top; If you run out of water everyone you pour into runs out of water. So question, what are you doing to take care of YOU? If you’re empty, you can’t fully function at your highest potential. When we don’t take care of ourselves everything in our life suffers. So, I know you think putting everyone first is the selfless thing to do, but it’s so unhealthy for YOU. For example, your body requires water for your organs to function correctly or things start to shut down. It’s the same with you taking time to pour into yourself mentally, physically and spiritually. If you can find time and money to do what others need of you, you can find time and money for yourself. Happy you, happy life for everyone! Warning: Do for you with no regrets !!! Fight to be the number one person in your life, bc you are the most important player on the team. Below are a few examples of things that don’t cost, but can make such a big difference in your life.
