Coming from a girl who’s ran out of gas like 3 times in her life I can attest that not a single one of those things are optional lol 😅
When it comes to the things in our life that need to be refilled or recharged: they don’t mess around.
The gas in our tank, our phone, our fridge, our nails, lashes, our cup of coffee…these players mean businessssss girl!
But why is it that whenever we translate this mindset to our mind + our body, the idea of recharging becomes a *sUgGeSTiOn* ? 🥴
Hear me out here:
🔋 everything we do in a day either drains our battery or charges our battery 🔋
📉 The tasks that drain our battery might be running errands, working or washing our hair. These are usually things we have to get done, that we might not always like or things that make us feel totally wiped
📈 Then we have tasks that charge our battery like journaling, working out, reading a book or taking a bath. These are usually things that we enjoy, that make us feel happy and full afterwards
❕ RECHARGING IS NOT OPTIONAL ❕
When we’re not taking care of US, we’re only giving ourselves and everyone around us a *fraction* of our awesomeness instead of the whole dang thang.
...AND YOU ARE PRETTY AMAZING! How dare you not bring all that awesome to the table!? ⚡️
We have to stop ignoring our own internal gas light and *low battery* notifications and take our internal well being seriously 🧘🏼
To be able to show up daily with your best self in tow, you need to make sure that you are recharging when you need to, to be your most powerful version of YOU 🌈
What is something you do or are going to start doing to recharge your batteries? ⚡️I’m a big fan of quiet time ✨ if you’ve got a bath or a book or a cup of coffee, I’m allllllllll over it 🤓 📚
Charging your phone? Not optional. Refilling your gas tank? Nope, not an option either. Recharging YOU? …..*crickets*....
