Self-care is any action you purposefully take to improve your physical, emotional or spiritual well-being. Too often, we do not make time for sufficient self-care because we’re too busy taking care of others. Life’s demands at home, in our community and at work can take our lives out of balance. Self-care can be getting more rest, eating healthier food, spending more time in thoughtful reflection, being kinder to yourself, smiling more, playing, or engaging in any activity that renews you. By making time for self-care, you prepare yourself to be your best so you can share your gifts with the world. You cannot serve from an empty vessel. © 2017 Eleanor Brown eleanorbrownn.com
