~ Emotional Self Care ~

stress management, gratitude, acts of kindness, forgiveness and compassion

Three of these emotional self care practices are outside ourselves and two are internal but all are interconnected. Where we find this interconnectedness…in the WORD.

SELF CARE ~ the practice of individuals looking after their own health using the knowledge and information available to them.

SPACE: Safety, organization, clean and tidy, security, stability

Space is order not disorder. The sea and the heavens are immense; the horizon where the hills meet the distant sea is the order of earth and heaven; it is cosmic. That cypress, tall, dark, alone, has the order of beauty.

Spiritual Self Care ~ Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 3:2

The World Health Organization, self-care includes any informed actions people take to promote health, prevent diseases, and cope with illness or stress—with or without the help of a healthcare provider. It is not a selfish luxury or just about pampering; it is a fundamental need.

When your soul and spirit are aligned, all else will align as well…if you believe that?

WEDNESDAY WISDOM

Sep9

This month marks the 3rd quarter ending of a jubilee year, 25 years! The next quarter is full of new and open possibilities. Why wait til January 2027? Why not start now? Who cares? Really? Do you care about you? Do I care about me? How? Do you treat yourself…with the leftovers? For the next quarter, I AM MANAGING ME THROUGH SELF CARE!!

SELF CARE ~ the deliberate actions individuals take to maintain and improve their physical, mental, and emotional health. I would add spiritual.

PHYSICAL

Sleep ~ same time each day or night

Stretching ~ before leaving bed, before and after exercising

Cardio ~ walking is one of the best, daily if possible; weight lifting; any exercise that raises the heart rate for at least 30 minutes

Daily Menu ~ 75 percent of each meal should be fruit or veggies

Rest ~ NOT SLEEPING, NOT WATCHING TV NOT SCROLLING ON SOCIAL MEDIA BUT setting or laying on the sofa for 10 – 15 without doing anything, JUST BE STILL

I chose health!

Withholding kindness from a friend

(Job 6:14)

Anyone who withholds kindness from a friend
forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

Most of the Book of Job is dialogue. Job’s friends try to help him understand the tragedies that have befallen him. At one point, Job’s friend Eliphaz suggests that Job is suffering because of his own foolishness.

Here Job tells Eliphaz that he’s the one acting foolish. Because if you’re withholding things like kindness, comfort, and compassion from your friends, you don’t fear God.
