Often a guilt trip is what many ride. Why is it so? That is because life long they are blamed for not caring enough for others, and instead prioritising self care.
Sure you should not ignore the welfare of others, especially those absolutely dependent on you, be it kid or the parent(s). It is the primal duty, to be performed most pleasantly, and with love.
Equally important it is to care for your own self. Such self care is not selfishness. If and only if you respect yourself truly, you can care for others, right?
Self care consists of a healthy body, a sensible mind full of sensitivity, an intelligent brain, a heart full of kindness, and a soul charged with imagination, integrity and contentment
Currently, there are very many avenues available so as to acquire such a balanced selfhood. Mindfulness, with some sense of discipline and control over self, is the best route to follow during such a search for peaq\ce and contentment.
Sure, currently, mindfulness is weaponised in to a billion-building bullying business which one follows to avoid mind games. Yet, we better remember, it is only when our mind is happy, fulfilled and quiet that we enter in to meaningful relationship with others, with the world, and with the self. Hence self help is indeed the best help!
Pratima@ In this self help week, time it is to initiate some hobby. Equally important it is to be financially absolutely independent. Oh, yes, better to remember that Satan prefers an idle mind!
