You really can only give to others what you have learnt to receive yourself. Self care is not a waste of time or money and is certainly something that you should never feel guilty about. Think about Your time as an investment you are making on behalf of your friends and family. When you are relaxed and happy, they can be relaxed and happy in your presence.
Self care has many aspects. You can invest in a Massage or Reiki treatment, take time out for some Meditation (hopefully if you are a regular reader of this blog you will be spending at least 10 minutes each day, reading the meditations and using them for you!) take a long walk in nature, taking a long hot bath with bubbles and candles, or even just as simple as switching off your PC, taking the phone off the hook and enjoying a nice cup if tea.
If we do not look after ourselves we will find we start running low on energy, eventually we will need to stop, as there will be no more energy! Fill your cup first, make yourself strong, for that WILL allow you to be strong for others!
Now let's meditate!
Take a deep breath counting to 4, hold your breath for a count of 5
Breathe out to the count of 6
Breathe out to the count of 6
Imagine yourself to be a vessel such as a measuring jug or cup
and see your seven chakras in a line within that cup or jug and
ask your higher self to show you how full of energy you are
How far up your chakra's is your personal reserve of energy?
Now let's go a little deeper
Take a look at your base chakra
see and feel your base and look at the energies
within that chakra
If the chakra is looking empty or the energy is not spinning smoothly
visualise pure clear energies flooding into that chakra
now repeat this for all your other 6 chakras
Once again, ask to see how high up your personal energy level is
Now, take a deep breathe, a sip of water and return
