“You need you … So take care of yourself a little more when days are hard.” – Unknown
Be there for you.
Don’t abandon yourself.
Recognize your needs for what they are.
Don’t downplay them, or demand more of yourself than you can reasonably give.
This is a time to take it more slowly.
A time for self-kindness and self-compassion.
I need more sleep, my dogs have been waking me up at 6:30-7:00.

My dogs started doing this a couple of months ago. They bark and me, claw on the covers I put over my head. They will not stop. So glad I have the luxury of taking a nap. 🙂
