Back to school means back to YOU! After a gorgeous, sunshine-filled summer, fall is quickly approaching and calling you to switch gears and get more grounded. Now is the perfect time to refocus on yourself and bring more attention to your self-care, which means paying attention to when your body requires rest, exercise, reflection, and maybe even some upgrades to your food and beauty products. (I have tons of suggestions if you need one!)
Heart surgeon Dr. Mehmet Oz once used the heart as a metaphor for all of us out there who give, give, give to others. He noted that the heart, like many of us, is responsible for many others receiving what they need to survive. The heart has to pump out blood to every organ in the body so that they can all function at their best. Yet the heart knows that if it doesn't fill itself up first, it will have no blood to give. I encourage you to take a lesson from your very own heart and make a commitment to fill yourself first. Without question, those who depend on you will be grateful that you did.
YOU are the only one who can give you what you really need to be happy, balanced and truly healthy, inside and out. If not now, then when??
Happy upgrading,
Jennifer
