self-care instruction manual

hufflepuffwannabe:

  1. forgive yourself : it’s okay if you didn’t wake up early, go for a run, or finish that assignment. you’re only human
  2. start slow : don’t set your expectations too high when you’re just starting off
  3. keep learning : getting to where you want to be is a process. don’t expect perfection overnight
  4. be kind to yourself : you’ll make mistakes along the way, but don’t let that stop you

“If you need a timeout, take it. If you need to disappear, to disconnect, to log off, to take a vacation, to just simply exist and rest—do it. Healing begins with you.”
