Honor yourself……. WRITTEN BY JUDY BROWN

All of life is cyclical. The moon and sun go round and round. Waves roll in and out. Your birthday comes and returns. The day repeats itself. You sleep and you wake. You get happy and you get sad. Your breath goes in and out. We Inhale, we exhale. Sometimes it is effortless. Other times it tires us. It is good to honor our cycles, our emotions, our energy levels, and our ups, and downs. February is a month of love. This is a time for words of appreciation and loves to friends and family. It is also an opportunity for self-love and honoring ourselves. February has returned from its cycle through the calendar. What a perfect month to give a little extra to ourselves. When we fill our own cups we have more to give to others.

Here are a 10 ways to honor ourselves this month: keep expectations reasonable…..for everything……for chores, work, family time, workout time, and all commitments. let go of certain routines that tire you. You can always reintroduce them when you are more able. take a mental health day or two. Take a break without guilt. Your body and mind will appreciate it. Most often this rejuvenates us. Even an hour can do the trick.
