First Light® Blend: Nurture and Restore

First Light® Blend: Nurture and Restore

Do you allow yourself the time and space you need to recharge and rest? Or, are you someone who struggles to say no to the needs of others at the expense of your own emotional and energetic wellbeing?

Taking care of your emotional and energetic wellbeing is as important as looking after your physical health and wellbeing. Many people overlook this aspect of self-care and wonder why they feel emotionally drained and energetically out-of-balance.

Permission to take time out

If you are someone who is naturally giving of your time and energy to help and support others, yet you struggle to give yourself time and space to recharge due to feelings of guilt or over responsibility for the welfare of others, remember you need to give yourself permission to do so. No one else can do it for you.

Being able to say ‘no’ when necessary, and creating and sustaining strong emotional boundaries is essential to prevent you from burning out and trying to be all things to all people.

Find what works for you

Self-care takes different forms for different people. For some people it means shutting the door and being alone for 20 – 30 minutes a day of peace and quiet. For others it might be going on a retreat for a weekend somewhere away from home and daily routines, or taking a long hot bath to relax and unwind.

When it comes to emotional and energetic self-care being aware of what situations, behaviours and attitudes affect you emotionally and energetically is key. If you are continually reacting to other’s demands on your time and energy and doing things out of fear or guilt, it is highly likely this will be having a negative impact on your emotional and energetic wellbeing.

If you are run by mental programs that tell you you are being lazy or self-indulgent if you are not constantly busy running around and doing things, taking time out to reflect on what is behind the need to be constantly busy could be very revealing.
