I used to think self care was selfish
That the only time I could do something for me was when the kids were napping or in bed
I didn’t want to be selfish, so I ended up losing myself
But what I learned was when I never filled my cup, I had nothing to give to those around me
I was sad, anxious and had no energy
When I looked in the mirror, I often thought “who am I?”
I lost myself
My hobbies
My relationships
So this past year I decided to learn to fill my cup too
And quickly realized when I did, I had more to give
I became a better mom
I strengthened my relationships
And even built new ones
I found new hobbies for myself and also ones I could share with my kids
But most importantly, I was happy
So if you’ve been feeling lost, or like you don’t know what makes you happy anymore, let this be your sign to do something for you
Start a new hobby
Find something you used to love to do and try it again
Invest in your relationships
Move your body in a way that feels ...
