Beautiful. It all starts with us. I'm not a mother but I can deeply relate to the need to take care of myself first before I give care to others. I've been thinking about this idea for awhile, getting stuck on this idea of needing to take care of my needs first as a selfish act because that's what we're told. We're told to take care of others, otherwise we're bad human beings. We're told to please each other even if it ends up being at the cost of our own needs. But the truth is that we can't show up as our wholehearted loving beings if we're not tended to our needs first. Thank you for your wisdom!
