Self Care is Essential
Close your eyes for just a minute and breathe deep. I want you to imagine sitting next to the ocean… Hear the gentle rolling of the waves coming in and out on the shore. Smell the salt in the air. Feel a soft, warm sun shining on your face as a calm breeze floats by… You are at a perfect place of peace where you can be still, even for just a moment. Beautiful. Feel the confidence within you rise to the surface as you allow your mind to ease. Release the many things that concern you. Rest in this space. Allow this Rest to soak into you.
If you’ve ever spent a day like this, you can attest to how rejuvenated and empowered you feel afterwards. Somehow the challenges, chores, tasks, responsibilities, relationships, and jobs all seem more manageable. You return with a new sense of clarity and optimism. Why? The key is in the word: Rest. You RESTED!
You were created to Rest. Yes, you were created to work hard, but you must remain balanced. Rest is not a luxury; it is a necessity.
For many of us, this experience of Rest happens few and far between. For many more, only once a year for a short 7 days. Even on our days off, many of us don’t rest. Instead, we cram our days full of all the things we didn’t have time for during the week. In this high-pressure, achievement-driven, fast-paced society, few of us take time to really pause and allow our minds, souls, and bodies time to rest and rejuvenate.
The consequences of not resting are dire. Modern science is now uncovering that many of the most severe diseases plaguing society are the result of lack of rest and sleep. Lack of rest leads to chronic stress and inflammation in the body. It prevents the proper elimination of cellular waste in the brain, body, and lymphatic systems. This in turn can lead to high blood pressure, diabetes, heart attack, heart failure, stroke, chronic pain, obesity, decreased immune function, depression, and even cancers.
Many of us feel guilty for spending time and resources on ourselves to get the rest we desperately need. YOU are your most valuable asset! The job, chores, tasks, responsibilities, relationships etc., won’t matter if YOU are not functioning. It is essential that you care for YOU! When you MAKE TIME for YOUR care, you will have the time and the energy to fulfill your purpose, achieve your goals, do the things, and care for the people you love.
But it starts with YOU deciding to embark on a journey of Wellness. And choosing to make REST a regular practice in your life.
