Breathe in, breathe out. Breathe in, breathe out. I’m sure we can all agree that this balance between inhales and exhales is absolutely necessary for our survival. Now I want you to imagine your typical day and every time you give to or help someone else, you are exhaling and every time you allow yourself to receive in any way, you are inhaling. Ok, be honest - how many of you would still be capable of continuing to read this post, and how many of you would be passed out (or worse!) because you can’t remember the last time you were on the receiving end of anything? If you’re like the majority of my clients, you would definitely fall into the latter category.

Right now, take a moment and think about what you can do today that will give you a bit of rest. It might be habit to say, "Oh, I don't have time for that." But, you do have time. Make yourself a priority. Take a breather. You can only do your best, give your best, when you are your best.
