Self Care
Monday, April 8, 2013
You are reading from the book The Language of Letting Go
Self Care
I don't precisely know what you need to do to take care of yourself. But I know you can figure it out.
—Beyond Codependency
Rest when you're tired.
Take a drink of cold water when you're thirsty.
Call a friend when you're lonely.
Ask God to help when you feel overwhelmed.
Many of us have learned how to deprive and neglect ourselves. Many of us have learned to push ourselves hard, when the problem is that were already pushed too hard.
Many of us are afraid the work wont get done if we rest when were tired. The work will get done; it will be done better than work that emerges from tiredness of soul and spirit. Nurtured, nourished people, who love themselves and care for themselves, are the delight of the Universe.
They are well timed, efficient, and Divinely led.
Today, I will practice loving self-care.

I can be my own worst enemy when it comes to taking on more than I can handle, to saying "yes" when I really want to say "no", and when it comes to putting the pressure on to get things done.
Just for today I will take my time, enjoy the journey and take very good care of myself.
Thanks LMN, I really need to "knock it off" and start being good to myself.
