On a day-to-day basis, everyone is so busy and consumed with work & life!

Whether it is work, family, kids, taking care of family members, working multiple jobs, stress, pets, etc. people are overly consumed and weighed down by all the responsibilities and pressures of life!

It is hard for some to make the time for themselves and just take a moment to breathe. As every time they turn around…it seems they are being pulled in another direction and attention is needed in about 100 different places at one time.

Many find making time for themselves unrealistic and impossible.

But the reality is, if one does not…sooner or later they will shut down and need a restart..like anything else!

I watched my Mom for my whole life take care of our family, her parents, everything for that matter…and it ultimately took a toll on her health! She never took the time for herself & health because of her love for all of us; but ultimately sacrificing herself.

This one kills me and I wish there was some way to go back and change all of this for her! She being the SAINT she is, always says she wouldn’t change a thing…but I would change her health in a minute if I could!

I am a STRONG believer in self-care and it is ESSENTIAL to make the time to take care of oneself to be the best version of ourselves! Which I understand is sometimes easier said than done!

Even if that means taking 5 minutes in the shower to decompress, 5 minutes of pampering your skin, 5 minutes of reading, etc. one must find a way to do so.

I will be sharing the importance of self-care and how to make it work for one and their lifestyle through my blog and socials! Follow along to learn how you can improve your self-care and find a little time for you to recharge, regroup and enjoy life more!

Until next time…
