OK, I've slipped. So here are 10 things I promise myself today. What's your promise?
I've slipped. It's been a rough week and I totally threw my self-care regimen out the window. Let's see: I've eaten some horribly unhealthy meals, blown my sleep schedule to bits, relied more on medication when I could be using relaxation techniques to handle stress, overworked when I knew my body was ready to quit...the list goes on and on.
But I'm not going to beat myself up over this. I'm through playing that game—I used to get mad at myself all the time for being an imperfect patient, but no more. Now my aim is to just get real with myself, take ownership of what's mine, and do my best to take good care.
With that in mind, here are 10 things I promise myself today. I know I won't always be perfect with them, but I'll do my best. Check them out, try a few and consider writing some of your own.
