You deserve self-care
You are deserving of rest and self-care without having to “achieve” anything first. You deserve rest of all kinds. You are worthy of releasing your burdens, switching off your phone, reducing stimulation, saying no to social engagements, taking a few days off work — and yes, good sleep too. And you deserve that held-by-the-Divine spiritual type of rest.
Your rest & recovery.. is an act of revolution. Your ancestors didn’t have such a luxury. And no, that doesn’t mean you should work harder becasue they did. It means that you can take rest when you need it as a way to honor them as well as yourself. You do not need to earn rest. You simply deserve to take it when you need it.
Sweet Sunday Blessings, Sis.
Be good to you.
