Practice selfcare from "summary" of Keep Going by Austin Kleon
Taking care of yourself isn't just a nice thing to do — it's a necessary thing to do. It's like putting on your own oxygen mask before helping others. You can't be of much use to anyone if you're dead. Self-care is not selfish. It's stewardship. It's taking care of the vessel that allows you to serve others.
Self-care is a way to replenish your inner resources, to fill your own cup so that you can pour out for others. It's about setting boundaries and learning to say no. It's about knowing when to take a break and when to push through. It's about recognizing your limits and honoring them.
Self-care can look different for everyone. It could be going for a walk, taking a long bath, reading a book, or simply sitting in silence. It could be practicing yoga, meditating, or dancing in your living room. It could be spending time with loved ones, journaling, or getting lost in a creative project. It's about doing what makes you feel whole and healthy.
Self-care is not just about the physical body. It's also about your mental and emotional well-being. It's about taking care of your mind and soul as much as you take care of your body. It's about seeking out joy, practicing gratitude, and cultivating a positive mindset.
Self-care is a way to keep yourself going. It's a way to prevent burnout and maintain your energy and enthusiasm. It's a way to stay connected to yourself and your purpose. It's a way to be kind to yourself and treat yourself with the same compassion and care that you give to others. So, remember to practice self-care. It's not a luxury — it's a necessity.
