'If I don't do it then who will?" "They won't know what to do without me." "It won't be done right if I don't take care of it." And many more statements we make out loud or within.
We've become so accustomed to stress, pain, and tension in our bodies that we don't even know it exists. As our body is sounding the alarm. 🚨
Along the way, we overextended ourselves.
Overextended - Impose on (someone) an excessive burden of work or commitments.
Ladies, please take care of yourself. The world will still turn if you stop...for some time and check on the condition of your spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical health.
You cannot and do not have to say yes to every offer of giving your time. On planes, there's a reason why they instruct you to put your mask on FIRST in case of an emergency. You can't help anybody else if you're no longer here. SAY NO. I WILL NOT OVEREXTEND MYSELF.
Protect your heart. Protect your mind. Protect your time and your space. Family first. All else...
