Self care is sooooooo important

Self care is sooooooo important

When we think we are doing the self care we need to, are we really doing it properly.

I have just been diagnosed with shingles.(painful, itchy and driving me crazy)

For those who don't know what it is, it comes from the chickenpox virus. It sits is your system until you are so run down and then it comes out and says hello in the worst possible way. I've been quarantined for at least a week and have had to ring all I have been in contact with in the last 5 days as that is the incubation period.

Yes I though I was self caring for myself but what I was doing was only enough to survive the day.

I say to you all that this is a wake up call that I have NOT been caring for myself the way I should have been, and it has come to bite me in the butt. No I am not in hospital which is far worse for anyone, but what I am saying to all is to REALLY take self care as a major importance for yourself.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR SELVES.

Hugs to you all.
