S E L F - C A R E
When life gets busy it is so easy to take yourself off of the priority list. You can not pour out of an empty cup, so taking the time to care for yourself is not just needed, it is necessary. Fill yourself up with the things that you love, so that when you are needed in the world you have plenty to share.
How often do you truly take the time to care for yourself and your own heart?
You are more than worthy of the time and effort of self care.
Make yourself a priority.
