Take time for yourself today.

IsMollyReallyHungry

Take time for yourself today.

Even though it may be raining, the dog is barking, your spouse or partner is moody, your boss is on a rampage, or it feels like the world is falling in on you, take a moment to do something for yourself.

Your mental health rests on taking time for yourself, affirming your spirit, and stopping the chaos in its tracks if only for a few moments. Let the rest of the world wait; you have something important to do--take care of you. This act of self-affirmation can be as simple as having a cup of tea in a stolen moment of the afternoon or five minutes of reading a fascinating article while locked in the bathroom. It can be a few extra minutes in a warm shower, a brisk walk, a good stretch, or sitting cuddled with your child or spouse or kitty.

Action for the day: No matter what is going on in your life today, take a few moments to affirm yourself. Claim a little time for you.
