Do It For YOU!

Self-care is often overlooked

Have that conversation with yourself.

Recharge those batteries.

Take that walk.

Turn that phone on silent.

Do nothing.

Sleep in.

Jump on that plane.

Light those candles.

Get that table for one.

Pour that glass of wine.

-

Just make sure… that you aren’t doing it for anyone else.

You owe it to yourself!

    I agree. Self-care is the most important thing. We wouldn't be ourselves without it. Thank you for the reminder!

  • Yes because if we don't do it for ourselves, who would? So yes, we should be our first priority. Loved your poem!
