Caring For Yourself

Caring For Yourself

Self-care has gotten a bad rap. Too often caring for our Self has been labeled ‘selfish’ or ‘self-centered.’ Truth of the matter is that we each have a responsibility to care for our Self—and that means tending to our nutritional, biological, physical, recreational, relational and spiritual needs. When any one of these are neglected, we become less of a person than we might be had we better cared for our Self. Furthermore, Self-care enables us to more effectively care for others. Jesus, himself, was a model of Self-care, often taking time away to recharge his physical and spiritual batteries. Do you care for your Self or are there areas clamoring for attention? Consider being a better caretaker of the body and mind you have been given.
