Self-care is not selfish. You cannot serve from an empty vessel.
Eleanor Brownn
This quote emphasizes the importance of self-care in maintaining one’s mental and emotional well-being. It suggests that taking care of ourselves is not selfish, but rather necessary in order to be able to serve others effectively.
Prioritize your own needs and well-being, and recognize that taking care of yourself is not a selfish act, but rather an act of self-respect and self-preservation.
The strongest people are not those who show strength in front of us, but those who win battles we know nothing about.
Jonathan Harnisch

Reframe your thinking and recognize that strength is not measured by how well you hide your struggles, but rather by your ability to face them and overcome them.
