YOU’RE OBSESSED WITH HEALING

Recently I had a friend point out to me that when she talked to me, I always mentioned all the things I’m working on.

She said, "It sounds like you’re always working. What do you do for yourself?" she asked. "What things are you doing for your self-care?"

That’s when it hit me.

When I first started taking time out to heal, I looked at that as my self-care time. Often, it was quiet moments in between work and family where I desperately worked through the emotions that consumed were consuming me.

As I started to rise above it, the work I was doing on myself became my passion, and the time I was using for my own healing was the time I used to study and learn ways to help others.

Now, I’m dedicating myself to sharing my message and my life’s work.

As I thought about this evolution, I realized that the answer to her question is that I stopped doing my self-care and started doing my life’s work instead.

But, I was still viewing the time I’m spending on my life’s work as my "self-care" time.

It didn’t occur to me that I wasn’t doing what I needed for me, because I feel like the work I’m doing is all about me.

Healing IS an important part of self-care.

But it’s important to not isolate ourselves in our healing journey.
