This is your daily reminder that SELF CARE isn't SELFISH
You're exhausted.
Running on empty.
Telling yourself you're fine, but secretly struggling.
You're not lazy.
You're not failing.
You're human.
You know the phrases: "You can't pour from an empty cup." and "Put on your own oxygen mask first."
But you keep giving your energy to others anyway
Showing up again and again
And even though you would do anything for some people.
Sometimes you wonder...what about me?
As an art therapist, I've learned how easy it is to neglect your own needs while supporting others — and the stigma that comes with it.
That's why I created FILL MY CUP
A reflective mini-series that gives you permission to prioritise self care and guides you towards aligned sustainable action
, ,
PART 1:
Time to pause
'I understand the concept of self care but not how it applies to me'
Why you can't pour from an empty cup
PART 2:
Why the gap?
Exploring the different factors influencing why there is a gap between knowing and doing when it comes to self care.
