I get it.
It’s busy season.
School. Sports. Holidays. Weather change.
Taking time to put the work into yourself seems selfish. There are SO many other things you could be doing.
I fall for it daily and excuse my way out of something.
I usually end up regretting it later.
Skip my work out … tired and achy later.
Not drink enough water … headache later.
Skip cryo … restless night and poor sleep later.
It’s cliche, but when I start to skimp on the things I need because I think I should be doing something else (usually for someone else), I think of the oxygen mask rule on the airplane. “Put yours on, so you can then help others.” And it rings true! When I take a moment and get myself on the right course for the day, I am much more able to pour into my family and take care of other needs!
1 hour is only 4% of a day. Take it for you!!
