Honoring ALL the ways we're taking good care

Beyond ideas of "being productive", may we honor all the ways we are taking really good care of ourselves. ⁠

Here’s a gentle invitation to honor all the ways you are taking good care of you:

  • I’ve slept

  • I've cried

  • I've rested

  • I've felt my feelings

  • I've been quiet and still

  • I've set the boundaries I need

  • I've taken things slowly and gently

  • I've meditated, prayed, contemplated

  • I've done what helps me feel better

  • I've moved, walked, danced

  • I've given and received love

  • I've listened to my body

  • I've savored the beauty

  • I've felt grateful


This list, featuring just some ideas, is a gentle invitation to acknowledge the ways we are taking good care. ⁠

Inviting us to look beyond constructs of productivity and doing and busyness, and guiding us more towards being.⁠

Remembering that taking good care will look differently for all of us, and might look differently day to day.⁠

Here’s to learning and growing together!
