Hello Beauitful soul,
You are truly the only one who can look after yourself .Self care however is not always what you think it is but is a divine responsibility you owe yourself .The responsibility comes in three forms the physical ,the mental and the spiritual and within these 3 forms balance in each is where self love is created .
To much emphasis on one part knocks the other out of balance .Self care is always an action we do for ourselves like exercise ,relaxation or eating healthy but it is also letting go of things that do not serve us .Forgiveness is high on the list of self care .Knowing that you are only human and as a human we all make mistakes but thats life and in doing we learn and grow .So let them go ,do not beat up on yourself for making mistakes ,forgive and release it is a huge part of self care .
When you are going through a difficult times taking a step back from people and situations is self care .Sometimes isolation is necessary to heal and recharge this also is self care .
Asking for support when you going through tough times is self care .You do not have to do it all by yourself ,support is not weak ,we all need support at times at some stage and asking and accepting when given is self care .
Too many people try so hard to be everything they are not ,knowing who you are and listening to what you need and allowing it in to your life is self care .
Saying “No” is self care ,I love the saying no is a full sentence .When you say no to someone or something you should not feel guilty . If you do not want to do it its your right to say no and in saying no you are saying yes to yourself .
Talking and expressing how you feel is self care .When we lock feelings up inside the only person we are hurting is ourselves .For so long my biggest act of not practicing self care was not talking about the pain and unhappiness I was feeling and also living .It slowly eats away at you filling your mind with poison ,your spiritually drained and physically tired and it shows in your presence .Your light is like a fading candle just about to burn out .
When I did start talking only then did I see what was really happening and it was the best self care act I could have given to myself .It is mine as it is yours to give yourself self care ,its a responsibility you can not ignore .Your relationship with yourself will get stronger ,you will feel better and your life will become more fulfilled .
Self care is your divine responsibility ,be responsible ,care for yourself ,you deserve it .
Caring for you ,This is an affilated link ,thank you as always for the support .
