Now maybe you're thinking:
We know you have a list of never-ending things to do, but we invite you now, like right now, to close your eyes and think of one thing that brings you joy, that makes you happy. Got it? Then start there.
If you’re struggling with identifying what makes you happy or brings you joy, that’s ok. Be gentle. Take some time to explore and think about it - that is self-care too.
As you work on identifying the things that bring you balance, schedule them into your busy week (with a pen) and stay committed to making that time about you. You can start with 5 minutes or 50 - devote it to refilling your cup, as best as you can in this phase of your life. Next week, do the same. We promise you won’t be the only one in your life who benefits.
