So it's been an interesting week of ups and downs.
I had a sore throat and by Sunday night it became a river of sore throat pain! Visiting the doctor I found out that I have strep throat. I got myself a nice round of antibiotics and a comfy spot on the couch. Sometimes I think sickness happens for a reason.
Last week I noticed things were not quite right but, instead of slowing down I just hit the gas, took pain killers and pushed harder. I failed to listen to what my body was telling me.
I think as busy moms, wives or workers we just push with no thought for what that might lead to.
So, as I sit here on the couch hot tea, spoonful of coconut oil and movies (For the littles and me) on I reflect on the need for a slowing down. How important it is to take care of myself.
My journey with my health has been about so much more than just pounds on a scale. This is another rung on ladder to climb. Learning the importance of self-care and relaxing.
