Self Love - Do you make it a Priority?
Many of us have a well developed habit of taking care of everyone else before ourselves. We can even indulge, in meeting others needs, at the expense of our own. When we are not taking care of ourselves, we're burning the candle at both ends. We go hard core with our energy, depleting ourselves.
How can we properly support anyone else when we are not running at full capacity ourselves?
Here are some ways to do Self Care -
