Do you often feel guilty - selfish even - about taking care of yourself, Friend?
Maybe you know it's not rational, yet you can't seem to shake this feeling of guilt that overcomes you whenever you try to prioritize self-care.
Well, I've got news for you: you're in good company. This happens to be one of the most common complaints of new clients. They feel they don't have time for self-care and feel guilty about taking the time. And so they don't take very good care of themselves.
But eventually it wears them down, stresses them out, and leads them into burnout. And it affects their ability to do anything well. Not only are they not as productive at work, but their ability to be a good parent, spouse, even friend goes down.
If you sometimes have trouble prioritizing self-care - especially because of guilt - then today's article is for you.
Because that guilt isn't only because you don't have much time. The issues run way deeper than that.
Not only will the article help you to better identify why you sometimes (or often) feel so guilty about taking care of yourself but you'll also learn how to start re-thinking what self-care is so that you can step away from the guilt for good.
