Self-care is not selfish.  When exhausted from responsibilities, resentment brews beneath a thin veneer.  Instead of turning to anti-depressants, alcohol or illegal drugs, take time for self-care.  It is Win/Win for your loved ones and you.

1. Be in the moment. Give yourself a few minutes each day to be, not think. 
2. Take a break from stress. A five-minute walk can change perspective.
3. Treat yourself to simple comforts. You deserve it.
4. Play.  Connect with your inner child and have fun.
5. Dare to Dream. Everything man-made was once someone’s dream.
