This is amazing! I can feel what you are feeling just by looking at the image. Remarkable. Self-care is so hard for women. We find ourselves multitasking, never quite in the place where were currently are but miles ahead thinking of what next. Often we don’t stop to take care of ourselves or even breathe until we are forced to do so by a cold or something. It’s good that you are aware enough to know when you need to pay attention to yourself. I love that you are so in tune with your self through your art–every artist’s dream. Be well.

Oh, and self-care (interesting it is an after thought.. haha!) Self-care and the activities that you mentioned like eating a warm lunch, getting some exercise, for me, a warm bath with book or magazine and early to bed under crisp clean sheets – such important elements for our creativity. For human beings full stop. I think of self-care activities (as fun!) and the receiving portion of creative expression, where writing, drawing, collaging etc is the sending portion. Woop woop.. I love art!! Warmest. E
