Moms know that in order to give to others, they must first give to themselves, including the gifts of time, self-care, health, and fitness.
In other words…..When you fill your cup first you can fill other’s more.
Flight attendants provide the perfect analogy. In their pre-flight safety announcements, they show us how to apply oxygen masks if needed during the flight, with instructions to “put on your own mask first” before assisting others. Why? Because without oxygen we can’t provide care to anyone else.
So take 20 minutes for yourself this Mother’s Day, indulge in some well deserved self-care, here are some of my favorite things.
