You are Struggling with Self-Care and it's Zapping Your Energy!
Hi there, beautiful Breast Cancer Warrior!Breast Cancer related fatigue impacts you on every level, physically, emotionally, and mentally, and it's not necessarily tied to physical activity or exertion. You've probably also noticed that it's not necessarily alleviated by rest. But, that's not to say you just have to suck it up and put up with feeling of being completely sucked dry...there is one thing you can focus on to easily help to revive your get-up-and-go!That ONE thing...is self-care!Let me explain...After a trauma like breast cancer we often go into a "cocoon" type phase...this is our next stage of recovery, but is rarely talked about. This is where we get to put back the pieces of our body, mind & soul that have been ripped apart...and yes, this is why we can feel so wiped out!To support yourself during this stage, it's crucial to nurture yourself. We do this with self-care.Self-care is the conscious act we take to promote our physical, mental and emotional health. In other words, self-care affects every single choice we make, and yet we are rarely taught how to actually practice it, until now.It can be so much easier to focus on what everyone else needs, and it can feel like a challenge to focus on what YOU need, especially when we feel like we've been asking for a lot of support during our breast cancer journey. But now, more than ever before, if you want to start living life again, instead of watching from the sidelines, it's time.When you decide to take care of you first, you...Make the food choices that supercharge your body, no matter what anyone else in the house is eating.Recognize when you're stressed and anxious and know what to reach for in your self-care toolbox to feel better, rather than going down the exhausting rabbit hole of your head spinning and your heart racing, your brain fog getting worse and you just can't wait to dig into a box of cookies and go to bed!Remove energy sucking, often carcinogenic chemicals from your home.Simply, by prioritizing your self-care, you can start to feel like your old self sooner than you thought possible!I know, because I use these simple tools for myself and my clients every single day.Hi!I'm Karin, Health & Transformational Coach, Breast Cancer & BRCA2 Thriver and I get it!!For most of my life, I focused on what the people around me needed, that was, until I realized how much it was sucking me dry. Over the past 20 years, I have been perfecting the art of prioritizing my self-care.The coolest thing is that when we practice self-care, we actually have more energy to take care of the people we love, clean our house whenever we want to, follow our passions in life, get out and have fun with friends again, and for me, it's the only way I have the energy to serve my tribe of fellow pink sisters!
