MaXIMIze - Practicing Extreme Self-Care

Yes, I know, I said we'd touch on several topics this month, including optimism vs. pessimism, abundance, and lack - and we will. However, February is the month of love - the 14th is Valentine's Day after all - and who should we foster an attitude of love and forgiveness with and for most of all? Ourselves!

We should be our own biggest cheerleaders, keeping ourselves focused on the "Yes, And" thoughts. In fact, we should be our own head cheerleader, gathering around us a team of other cheerleaders who support and encourage our goals and dreams.

I know I've said it before, however it warrants repeating over and over again - if you've ever flown, you've heard the flight attendance tell us, in case of emergency, to put on our own oxygen masks before helping those around us put on theirs.

In order to help others grow and thrive, we need to help ourselves grow and thrive first. We need to be a light unto our own path in life.

How can we save someone else if we are drowning ourselves?

So I ask you this - how are your practicing extreme self-care in your life?

Until next time, love thyself.

Namaste!
