Pat Yourself on the Back
This is the 52nd issue of Self Care! I'm so excited that I have completed one whole year of tips, not missing a single week! I am also proud of myself. I met a goal set a year ago. I'm positively kvelling on myself. Kvell is the Yiddish word to "exclaim joyfully or proudly."  It is usually used when talking about a loved one who has done something special.
We're taught not to
brag or be conceited but does that mean we can't acknowledge our own triumphs or successes? So many times we are the first to
criticize ourselves for not meeting a goal or doing well. I believe we
should be the first to pat ourselves on the back and bask in the glow of a job well
done.
I'm suggesting that it is healthy and an act of self care to be proud of yourself.
I've told you about what I'm exclaiming joyfully and proudly. I'd love to hear about something you're kvelling about too!
