Taking care of ourselves is not selfish; it is essential for our wellbeing.😌
Unfortunately, many people see self-care as a luxury or indulgence, and this misconception can be a significant barrier to actually engaging in self-care practices.
Self-care can take many forms, from taking a break when we're feeling overwhelmed to managing a chronic health condition.
But no matter what form it takes, self-care is a deliberate choice to do something that will benefit us.❤️
It's important to dispel the myth that self-care is selfish or only for people with mental health issues.
The truth is that we all need to take care of ourselves, both physically and emotionally.
When we take care of ourselves, we're better equipped to be there for others. 🤗
We can't pour from an empty cup.

Neglecting our own needs can lead to burnout, illness, and emotional exhaustion.
It's not uncommon to feel overwhelmed, especially when we have family members to take care of, aging parents at home, or financial worries.
We may feel disconnected from our loved ones and wonder if they appreciate us.
We may even feel guilty for wanting to take time for ourselves when there are so many other demands on our time and energy.
But the truth is that self-care is a necessity. 🥰
It's not a luxury or indulgence.
When we take care of ourselves, we're better equipped to handle life's challenges and to be there for our loved ones.
We can't control everything that happens in our lives, but we can control how we respond to it.
