Being a partner, being a parent, being a care taker, being an employee/ worker, being a house keeper, being a chauffeur, being everything, all the time, for everyone else is exhausting. When do you get to get back to you? When you retire and the kids move out? There’ll always be something or someone who needs your help. Don’t forget to make time for yourself. Self care is more important than ever. Take time to meditate, to enjoy hobbies, to write in a journal, to exercise, to be in nature, to get back to you. If you don’t check in with yourself from time to time, how will you be sure you haven’t lost “you”? Make yourself a happy place, to relax and to sort out your mind. It’s not selfish. As they say: ” you can’t pour from an empty cup”.
