Dear Sister
Are you good to yourself?
Do you practice self care?
Do you take time to nurture yourself?
In order for me to take great care of others, I need to practice self care. This has not been easy for me. It was all about self deprivation for so long- It was not a healthy way of living. I thought if I could do that for this person, and please that person this way, it would somehow place "value" on my life.
I was a people pleaser, and most times a door mat.
It was not a fun place to be, but I seriously thought that was how I was suppose to be.
Well, lessons learned, seeking out mentors, coaches, teachers, and a bunch of self care practice later....I am learning that being a door mat is not where I am supposed to be.
There are great things for me in this life, and frankly I was missing them.
My prayer for you is that you will seek out counsel, wise people in your life or maybe that you will have to find that can teach you how to be good to yourself. Take the time to care & nurture yourself. Do that first, and the rest will come.
Be good to you.
Speak kindly to yourself.
Choose healthy food that fuels your body & mind.
Choose moving & exercise that builds strength.
Take the time.
You are important.
You are worth it.

Shannon
