I hope I never need to perform CPR on someone I love.
But today, while practising, I thought about how much I’d want to be able to help. 💙
I refreshed my first aid and CPR training with C*D College in Penrith today - another great experience with their team.
As I practised the compressions, that little back ache that comes and goes made itself known. I was reminded of the physical effort involved.
And there it was - another reason to be strong.
We often talk about strength for carrying groceries, climbing stairs and keeping up with the kids.
Today reminded me that strength can also help prepare us for moments we hope will never come.
You don’t need to be super fit to learn CPR or help in an emergency. Please don’t let that thought hold you back.
For me, it was another reminder of why I keep training - to feel capable when it matters, for myself and the people I love.
What’s your reason to stay strong? 💙
