FILL YOUR
CUP!
LEARN TO LEAD BY EXAMPLE BY PRIORITISING YOUR OWN SELF CARE AND WATCH YOURSELF SHINE
I'm Lesley and I'm an Artist and Art Psychotherapist and I have a gift for you.
Be YOU ....space to PAUSE and REFLECT as well as to take aligned action that will help you feel good personally and professionally.
Get out of survival mode and break the cycle of exhaustion and self neglect as you put all your energy into supporting others. When you dive into my mini video series, you'll discover the key to filling your cup and prioritising your own needs.
I imagine that you are no stranger to statements like 'You can't pour from an empty cup', or 'Practise what you preach' and are well aware of the importance of self care.
Do you often say 'I'm FINE' but secretly struggling and feel you are spending your life in survival mode?
Putting other people's needs before your own, scraping through life, exhausted and feeling like you are balancing naked on a tightrope........that's on fire.
You might try to keep a smile on your face, pretending to others that you are fine, but really you are FRAZZLED
This is an important reminder to you that when your 'cup is full' you will feel good mentally and physically.
And how does that feel? Happier, with more energy and confidence and fully present in all areas of life.
So why, when you know all of this, do you find yourself scraping the bottom of the barrel?
Why are you able to support other people with their health and wellbeing but barely meeting your own needs?
Why is there a gap between knowing and doing?
If you are anything like me you are probably over thinking it all and over analysing and you might be experiencing a whole bunch of emotions and it's ok. It's very easy for someone to neglect themselves when helping other people and very common to feel frustrated and resistant when offered help to do the very things you support others to do.
As an art therapist I know what its like to let my own needs go in favour of my clients and I have learnt to be self aware and understand that my own health and wellbeing.
Ultimately when I prioritise my own self care and take action to feel good, grounded and balanced my clients ultimately get a better service from me......so its a win win.
So would you agree that it's about damn time that we all became a bit more compassionate towards ourselves?
It's time to get out of your head and into your heart.
