There are many things that you can change about your life: jobs, careers, husbands/significant other, cities, countries, houses, cars… But does changing any or all of these things accomplish the feeling you are looking for? And if you make changes and do NOT change how you are taking care of yourself, does it really impact your life?
Things might change for awhile, but they return you right back to the same space unless you decide to change yourself. Changing how you treat the most important person in your life … YOU! Then and only then will things flow together and begin to feel like what you are looking for.
Most people don’t make such changes until they must move through a traumatic experience, an illness or death of a loved one or maybe you have had a close call yourself. Some people need the kick in the pants, that a huge life changing circumstances create. Other people are afraid and take solace within their personal comfort zones. Change is a scary process.
The next question you may be asking is “What is extreme self care?” The meaning that resonates to me… is “the practice of fully committing to a nurturing lifestyle.” Extreme Self Care requires connecting with yourself on a daily basis, deciding what you need and then following through to make it happen.
People are resistant, they are scared, they trapped in their comfort zone. Even when they can see that following a certain path will lead to ripe rewards; they are frozen in their tracks.
Are you worth it? Are you worth making the decision to change those things in your life? Are you ready to have more fun, create more artistry and creativity in your life, are you ready to be successful and satisfied that you have done everything you could today to love yourself and give yourself the strength to create a lifestyle of Extreme Self Care?
Yes, you are worth it! You do deserve it! and yes every last experience that you have while taking extreme care of yourself will feel better then the last one.
