Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration

The focus for today is:  I take the time to take care of myself.

 As caregivers, healers, parents, etc. we tend to take care of others first. Our own self-care comes later when, and if, we have the time, and/or the energy.

That needs to change! If we drain ourselves of energy, and don't take the time to replenish, not only will we be empty of vitality, but we will have nothing to give to others either. Definitely not a win-win situation.

In order to be able to sustain our energy, we must take the time to rest and to pamper ourselves. Treat yourself the way you would treat the person who is the most important to you. After all, that person is you! Without you, you are nothing! So take some time every day to take care of yourself.


Today's Daily Inspiration is excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article:

Change Can Bring New Life and Energy
