Elaine Williams our Acupuncturist reminds us the importance of self-care:
International self-care day revisits us every year in July, nudging us to remember to care for ourselves in a hectic world where we often prioritise the needs of others.
At Luck’s Yard we believe “ The best healthcare plan is a self-care plan.”
With this in mind we offer you 3 thoughts to reflect on for international self-care month 2024.
- An empty lantern provides no light. Self-care is the fuel that allows your light to shine brightly
- ‘A good life has a healthy mix of selfish boundaries and unselfish giving. You don’t have to be all things at all times. Sometimes you pour for others and sometimes you refill your own cup’. James Clear
- ‘If beating yourself up worked, you’d be rich, thin and happy. Try loving yourself instead’. Louise Hay
If you need some pointers to learn how to self-care, Elaine recommends a book by Cheryl Richardson called The Art of Extreme Self Care: 12 Practical and Inspiring Ways to Love Yourself More
