In order to be able to physically and emotionally show up for others, it is imperative that we carve out time for ourselves first. You might ask. what does it mean to prioritize self? It means being in tune to yourself - mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. and recognizing when your cup needs to be refilled.

  • Assess your Needs

  • Identify your Mood

  • Are you hydrated, when did you last consume water?

  • Are you hungry, when did you last eat?

  • Are you rested, are you tired, how many hours are you sleeping?

  • Are you getting physical activity? When did you last exercise/stretch?

  • Have you done anything for yourself today?

Take time to refill your cup before you pour from it for others

I love this. It really is non-negotiable because when we aren't taking care of ourselves - it shows. Avoiding your needs is not sustainable.
