When we apologize for taking care of ourselves, we often end up compromising the care we know we need. From staying out late, over scheduling ourselves and tolerating behavior that doesn’t contribute to our overall health, we save taking care for later, for tomorrow. And then later, we feel rundown or even get sick because we didn’t do what we knew we needed to do.
That moment, when you think you don’t have time or approval to take care of yourself is the exact moment you need to take care of yourself.
