Self care is very important. I have been going at full speed since January between work, love, and school and this summer was no exception. As many of my readers know, I changed jobs and moved from LA to Monterey Bay. Honestly, this move was partially motivated by self care. The ocean is my happy place. There is healing in the air and in the waves. I become rejuvenated by the sea. This move has been so healing. While I miss my friends, chosen family, and students in SoCal, I am feeling more and more myself every day.
This morning I woke up pretty early and decided to drive to the beach. I've been working pretty hard since I started my new job and haven't really had a moment for myself during the week. I jumped in my car and headed to Lover's point. I walked and reflected. I took my self-care one step further and went to the best breakfast place for gluten free pancakes. I'm taking my time this morning before I have to be at work. I'm taking time for me and getting energized. Take time for you today. It's so important to make sure you put your body and mind first for a few minutes every day.
