“Taking care of myself doesn't mean 'me first.' It means 'me, too.”
― L.R. Knost

The biggest misconception in self-care is that taking time for yourself is selfish. Self-care is essential! Without it we break down and eventually are useless to ourselves and others.

 

Think of the time and effort we relinquish taking care of our cars, our homes, our jobs, our children, our significant others, our parents, our pets….the list goes on. We have lost ourselves in the mix. Time for ourselves is not only beneficial, it is essential in self-preservation.

 

An important addition to self-care is massage therapy. The benefits on our bodies and minds are compelling:
