Most of us know what self-care is, but how many of us really practice it? Be honest.
Do you tend to ignore doing things for yourself? Or do you practice? We need to take care of ourselves first before we can take care of others. If we are running on empty, what we offer others is not as valuable if you are well rested. What we offer others is someone who could be angry all the time.
Learn to schedule this into your daily routine, this way you will not forget and it also makes it a priority.
