I was listening to an interview the other day and one of the things that stayed with me was a statement Tabitha Brown shared: “Show up for yourself first!” In life we show up for everyone and everything but tend to forget about showing up for self.
In 2023, I challenge each of us to set boundaries and establish more balance in our lives spiritually, mentally and physically!
- Laugh, cry…smile. Be present
- Commit time for yourself.
- Do a self-audit of your time, money and energy—where is it going?
- Rest. Have fun, exercise, travel — do something that is just for you, not for work, not for school or for your family and friends. Just for you.
- Acknowledge your emotions: Let yourself feel it. It is okay to be in your moments!
- Forgive yourself!
- Move and nourish your whole body.
* Our body does so much for us. It is our temple. Add water, rest, and goodness…
- Stop worrying over the things and people you cannot control
* Pray and release it to God!
Showing up for yourself is not a destination. It’s a determined journey to choose yourself.
It is the foundation of self-love.
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”– Oscar Wilde
