You can’t pour from an empty cup

Take care of yourself first. It is not selfish, it is necessary.

Today I’m particularly tired. I have been working on LetsConnect for 3 years now, almost every single day, and I think the tiredness is finally catching up. I’m super tired to the point I feel like I can’t love the the project the way I used to be. I’m drained.

Found this picture today… and I really like it ❤️. I think it’s a reminder to me. Taking care of yourself is not selfish. It is necessary. We all need to remind ourselves of that fact. And we need to remind each other.

Living with mental illness is already hard. Having to work or having other responsibilities on top of that IS really hard.

Remember to give yourself a pat on the back.

Take time to REST my friends …

Take a day off for rest and reflect.

Take time to rest and to rejuvenate your spirit.

Then … and only then …

“Remember why you started in the first place. Pick yourself up and Keep Going” ❤️ 🤗 ❤️.

Love 💗,

🌻 Sophie
