Self-care comes in a lot of forms.
Yesterday that looked like sitting in my sorrow and allowing myself to feel all the feelings.
I cried.
I yelled.
I cried even harder.
I asked hard questions.
I yelled some more.
And I continued to cry until I felt better.
Making space for myself to grieve and accepting that “plans change” sometimes and “life doesn’t turn out how you plan” was my self-care time yesterday.
My encouragement for you today is to do whatever it takes!
I don’t know what you’re going through, and I won’t pretend like I understand the weight of it, but I do know it gets heavy and you get tired even if it’s a load you can manage on your own. Some days those uphill claims feel endless, but at the top of every mountain is a beautiful sunrise! So do whatever it takes!
Get support.
Rest.
Heal.
Fuel yourself.
Take it one breath at a time.
But make the space for yourself so that you can finish this hike!
It’s not over until we’re all partying at the top.
You may not be ok right now. And I may not be ok right now. But we are going to see that beautiful sunrise! Because we’re going to do whatever it takes!
Pinky swear
