To love yourself, finding time for relaxation, to calm the thoughts and live in the present moment, is also an act of loving those whom depend on you. Be careful to keep enough of yourself, to reserve it safely within, to have the courage to say, "No" to a world of greed that exploits people in the same callous way it takes from mother nature. In a world such as this, radical self care is part of not only surviving, but learning how to thrive and make new and better choices. Your heart and soul are worth keeping and guarding.
The beauty salon is where I can remember that I am a person too, that my needs are real needs, and it's okay to take care of myself too. Sometimes women need permission to seek self care and time for themselves to stay healthy. If we don't care for the carers, if we don't support the supporters, where will society go?
