SAILING ⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵

One of the most spiritual experiences I've ever had. To literally control the power of the wind, and change the direction of ones path. Highly recommend the peace and quiet of sailing ⛵💙

@MaggieMaggie, I love sunrise & sunsets too.

Such a magic time of transition.

It really is a beautiful world 🌇💙

TIME:

There is a time fot everything. A time to heal
A time to recover. A time to rest. A time to blob. A time to eat and a time to eat.

Like to add to the list?

I see we are now up to the letter U. Trust me to come along with the difficult letters.  Anyway here goes my contribution towards the self-care alphabet.

Understand our own limitations and work within them

Do something new and Unusual, something to take our mind off our worries for a while

A = ABILITY FOCUS!
Focus on our own abilities, and that of others, more than our disabities. This helpscme self care to build self-esteem, usefulness, independence, strength, happiness, giving, potential, gratitude...

@Former-Member, Glad to have you, and @Former-Member, keep adding your self care strategies guts.

I just had a conversation with my adult son where we both agreed that the best gift we could give each other, is to take care of yourself.

Another take on this concept is

"The best gift you can give your children is to take care of you. Because this helps bring them the best mum possible"

Any more A's or shall we move to B ?
