You Can’t Pour from an Empty Cup: Self-Care Without the Guilt

You Can’t Pour from an Empty Cup: Self-Care Without the Guilt

What Self-Care Really Means

It’s not always bubble baths and candles (though those are great). Real self-care is:

  • Saying “no” without overexplaining

  • Taking a break before you're exhausted

  • Nourishing your body, mind, and spirit consistently

Simple Self-Care Practices You Can Start Today:

  • Set a 10-minute boundary between work and personal time

  • Unfollow one account that makes you feel “less than”

  • Replace one task on your to-do list with rest

Final Words:

Rest is productive. You don’t have to earn it. Your well-being is the foundation for everything else.
