Why I struggle to carve out time for self-care?Īs a Yoga and Barre teacher…and dare I say as a studio owner, my personal Yoga and Barre practice has begun to slip away.
It is essential for our community and our world, so that we may find our way through with joy, love and hope. It is essential for us to connect with others, from a place of loving kindness. And so sometimes, in order to take care of everyone else, we must press pause and do nothing for a moment. There is a weight to all of the jobs, items, people, caring, loving and sharing that we do. I had to stop waiting for the moment to show up, I had to start to take control and carve out for self-care and get back to Yoga for my wellness. I was so good at this ‘after I do’ mentality, that my to do list just kept growing and I would hardly ever find a moment for myself. There are so many things that I could be doing (note I am trying not to ‘should myself’), people I could be helping, classes I could be teaching, tasks I could tick off. I think, wouldn’t it be nice to while away the hours, but I have x, y, z, a, b and all the rest to do! I sometimes feel guilty taking time for myself – and I know I am not alone. As a wellbeing studio owner, I thought I would share my struggle to create time for me and how 6 simple steps make self-care possible in my busy world. Self-care is essential to our wellness, and yet I have neglected to carve out time for my Yoga, Yin, Barre and Pilates practice.
