What does Self Care look like @ MVT???
A day away from the track on a Reiki Retreat day with Ann & Jonathan from Holistic Wellbeing Yorkshire Ltd to enjoy connection, relaxation and healing in the company of beautiful souls. Thank you both so much for a beautiful day π₯°
And of course it wouldn't have been the same without one of our favourite humans and dream team member Kirsty Rawden Veterinary Physiotherapy π
Yesterday I was reminded that Self-care isn't selfish, it is Self-love, something we all need to practice more of!
We spend so much time caring for others, both animals & humans, that we forget to check in with ourselves but there comes a time when you realise that being strong and capable, constantly giving and putting others first is slowly costing you pieces of yourself, and it can happen without us even realising because we are 'too' busy. But practicing self-care doesn't need to be a big thing. It can be as simple as slowing down, setting boundaries, getting enough rest, saying βNo!β without explanation or feeling guilty, giving yourself permission to feel what you feel, and when you can, take a moment, a morning or an afternoon for yourself to relax and recharge β¨οΈ
So here's a reminder to you all...
Be gentle with yourself π«ΆπΌ
Check in with yourself π§π»ββοΈ
Get comfortable with saying No βπ½
Rest when you need to π€
Start again when YOU are ready πͺπΌ
And remember...
YOU are worthy of the same love, care, time, patience and kindness that you so freely give to others π
