This reminder is going to be very important to me during the kids' summer vacation.
Even though their routines changes, I still need my rest.
And my routines.
So I am trying to work in both.
I hope you get to prioritize rest too.
And I wish you the best possible week you can have.

I saw this on Pinterest this morning and thought it was such important messages.
That cozy is a coping skill and that softness actually can save us.
I was thought that being soft was no good at all.
And I hid my softness away from an early age.
Now I am trying to bring it back into my life.
I am also trying to learn that resting isn't giving up.
That gentle doesn't mean weak.
And that cozy isn't a luxury - it's a lifeline.
It certainly is for me.

Things to try to give to yourself this week:
- attention
- permission
- forgiveness
- more credit
- patience
- love
- a break.
Some are easier than others.
But what matters is that we try to practice.
Practice matters.
I wish you the best possible week you can have.

It took me years and years to learn that when you think you're nice to everybody - you yourself are one of everybody too.
It blew my mind the first time, I thought about that.
I was never thought to include myself.
And I still forget to do so most of the time.
That's why I told my oldest, in the speech I gave at his confirmation, to always include himself in "everybody".
And that's why I want to remind you today.
I want to wish you the best possible week, you can have.

As we begin a new week, I wanted to remind you of how progress and healing can look - and often does.
It's not linear.
And it's not easy.
At least not for me and many I know.
You're doing your best.
Even on days where it doesn't feel like it.
Then you're still doing your best.
Our best looks different on any given day.
So please try to be kind to yourself.
I wish you the best possible week, you can have.

I don't remember if I've shared this one before.
But if I have, it can do with another share.
Because it is so important to remember this!
I try to remind myself of this often.
Because it helps me to be kinder to myself and to show myself more grace.
I am coping with a lot.
So it's okay that I do less than most others.
Let's try to be kind and compassionate towards ourselves this week - and preferably every week.
I wish you the best possible week, you can have.

For this week, I would like to remind you that you're doing a lot!
You are doing your best.
And you are a real fighter.
Many of our battles are hidden.
Others will never see them.
And it takes another Mighty to understand what we're going through on a daily basis.
I send you strength, care, and support.
And I wish you the best possible week, you can have.

@interstellarrpuffin shared a quote in the Neurodivergent Vibes group, that really hit home with me:
"You did your best today and it was good enough. Try to let go of the heaviness of the day".
I've written it on a note on my phone that I read most nights before bedtime.
And it's helping me to be kinder to myself.
I wanted to share with you.
Because you deserve kindness from the world and from yourself - oftentimes we can't do anything about the world around us, but we can do something about how we treat ourselves.
And I hope you'll practice being kind to yourself.
I wish you the best possible week, you can have.

Healing is a goal for many of us.
But it's certainly easier said than done.
That's why it's important we encourage each other to keep on focusing on and working for healing.
Because I absolutely believe that you can do it when you give yourself time and effort.
Remember: Small steps matter SO much!
And they accumulate and gain momentum.
I wish you the best possible week, you can have.

This is such an important reminder for all of us living different lives than most others.
Many of us can't do "the big things".
That doesn't make us wrong or less than others.
And it doesn't mean we can't have a good life!
