This class reminds us of the importance of looking after yourself and the steps that we can take to help us on our journey.

The better you feel, the better you can help other people feel too. You owe it to:yourself your family the others in your life

It’s easy to be overwhelmed.

Everyone’s cup can get emptied very quickly and sometimes never be filled up again. If you’re running on empty, you have nothing to give to yourself and nothing for the other important people in your life. This can leave you feeling worthless and useless, and all of you feeling rejected, resentful and angry.

This class helps us recognize to do things - even small things – to make yourself feel good. Every little treat helps to fill your cup so you’ve got something to give out.

Making time for yourselfWork out what helps you and set aside certain times in the day and week to fill your cup. If you’re having difficulty setting aside that time, ask yourself what gets in the way?All sorts of things can get in your way, either practical or emotional. Practical barriers may be lack of time or money, or anxieties about what your kids may get up to if you went out. Emotional barriers may be negative beliefs about your entitlement such as “I don’t deserve it” or “It’s selfish to think about my own needs”.

This session is "me time" too help learn ways to take time for yourself.Once you’ve identified the barriers, we will talk them through , the word ‘I’, is an important tool in helping us to get our needs met.

Give yourself permission to relaxEven very small things we can do for ourselves can help us. The benefits will be that we relax, charge our batteries, feel better about ourselves and teenagers, feel better about life and more able to cope.
