Is Self-Care Selfish?
There’s a word that comes up quite often when I talk with women in midlife:
“I need to be more selfish with my time.”
“But, I don’t want to seem selfish.”
“Geez, I’m using the word ‘Me’ and ‘I’ a lot and it sounds selfish.”
That word “selfish” comes up a lot because I talk to ladies every day who have put themselves last on their list for too long.
They have been so “self-LESS” throughout their lives that their health has suffered a little or a lot as a result and hence, they reach out to me because now in their midlife years, they are ready to refocus on taking care of themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally.
