I AM MY TOP PRIORITY

I am my top priority.
Caring for myself as I navigate my days.

I tend to the fire of my needs,
as I fuel my light filled soul.

I take ownership of self care,
honoring the responsibility of keeping myself healthy, safe, nourished.
I am the foundation for all that unfolds beyond me.

I come before my tasks and obligations,
fulfilling them gratefully when I fill my cup first.

I wake and pour myself exactly what I need,
before jumping into the scurry of my day.

I sit while I eat my meals,
relishing in the flavors my food has to offer.

I nourish my mind with intent-full input,
creating a healthy blueprint for my internal world.

I sleep deeply with the intent of resting and refueling,
replenishing my energy for the next great day.

I am my best critic,
lifting myself up throughout the day,
dusting my knees off when I fall,
I stand taller as I remind myself…

”I am incredible.
I am important.
I am worthy of being first.
I am my top priority.”
