Almost there | Elin Härkönens blogg

Exhausted. Emotionally, physically and mentally. A bit too much have been happening lately.

But FINALLY everything starts to fall into places. When I get periods like this in my life I easily forget to take care of myself. I just keep going, trying to push everything away, ignore it and just fight through. BUT it doesn't work for a long time. Eventually you crash. I have become so much better at taking care of myself, even if I still forget it. A couple of years ago I NEVER even had a thought of doing anything for myself or my health. I was ONLY thinking about everyone else. I still do. I still prioritize everyone else happiness before my own. That's who I am. And I will probably always be like that. BUT I have learned that if I don't take care of myself, I am not able to take care of anyone else. I am smarter and I know better now. Today I finally booked an appointment for my neck. I felt so good that I did it. Something for ME. I definitely should do it more often. But I still feel that I would rather give away a massage to any of my friends instead of going myself. Well everone of us have something we have to get better at. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO HELP ANYONE ELSE EITHER. # breakitandyouwillmakeit
