You can’t pour tea from an empty teapot, and you can’t give your best self to others if you’re running on empty. Taking time for yourself isn’t selfish; it’s essential self-care. Schedule in “me time” – whether it’s reading, gardening, a quiet walk, or just enjoying a cup of tea in peace. Recharge your batteries, replenish your spirit, and do things that bring you joy. You deserve it, and everyone around you will benefit from a happier, more refreshed you. So, fill your own teapot first, then you’ll have plenty to pour out for others.
