		<description>Thank you for sharing this.  By saying it &quot;out loud&quot; on your blog, you not only gave yourself permission to relax, you helped remind me that I too, am in need of some self-care because I am worth it.  Enough said.  It&#039;s time to go take a walk to support the Department of Peace and go chat with other lovely, like-minded individuals.  I know it&#039;s not quite as soothing as &quot;stretching out in a sunbeam&quot; but it&#039;ll do the trick!  If you&#039;re interested, go check out www.dopcampaign.org   Have a Fabulous day!!

		<description>Hey Jessica! Thanks for hanging out here!

It is so so so hard to move from seeing self care as something you do when you have a little bit of a extra time, to something you gotta do every single day.

Example: yesterday, after writing this post, my brain was all &quot;Ok, lesson learned. Can we work all day and all night now?&quot; And then I promptly got a migraine, indicating that uhh...no. We can&#039;t do that.

So even when you think you&#039;ve got it, it still can take time to really, reallllly get it haha :D

But I completely and totally applaud you for starting the process! Seriously, it&#039;s just starting that counts.

So RAHRAHRAHRAH for both of us! :D</description>

		<description>AMEN sister!!  I just wanted to thank you for being so so awesome and honest about your process.  It&#039;s not easy but between you and Havi&#039;s blog, I&#039;m slowly trying to accept this whole self care thing as a NECESSITY not a LUXURY as well.  It&#039;s not easy so I just wanted to get out the pompoms and the cheering squad and do the whole RAHRAHRAH thing for you :D
