While relaxing, I couldn't help but think about all the CAREGIVERS – in my circle of friends, among my clients, and also in our online community.
No matter if you're looking after clients and customers, a team, kiddos, a partner, elderly parents, a sick pet, …
… or even diving into global causes like my friend Lyss who’s tackling food security, or another client of mine who’s working on refugee issues and social justice
Ubuntu, I see you … and your service to those around you and the greater whole.
As so many of you juggle caring for multiple people and causes at the same time, just a gentle reminder:
YOU DESERVE THE SAME CARE
as everyone (and everything) else.
This statement of love is for you …
Dear Caregiver,
each moment of presence, each act of kindness, each gesture of support is a testament to your love.
Thank you. You are blessed to have someone to care for and a blessing to others.
In moments of challenge, find solace in your breath. Breathe in the wonder of life, exhale the weight of responsibilities. Inhale resilience, exhale worry.
During your compassionate journey, take a moment. As you care for others and many things, may you follow your inner wisdom guiding you to also nourish your own Spirit.
Cherish the experience, embrace the challenge, AND fuel your deeper self. Your presence is a gift; your well-being matters; your care extends to yourself.
May being present in this moment bring you peace.
Isn’t that beautiful, that we all get to be cared for?
Now, I'm heading off to take care of DUKE for a while—giving him some cuddles and a special bath to address his skin issue.
Sending heaps of love your way,
Shailia 🌈🌟
