The ripples of stress in my life have the potential to knock me off my foundation if I don’t remain grounded. I learned this recently when my roots were pulled out one by one over a few years of steady stress, crisis periods, extreme caregiving , depression and fear. Lack of self care allowed the ground to dry making it easy for the roots to give way. Now I was walking with a cane, in pain, with no energy. You must “take care of yourself” they all said… as if it were easy. “Self Care!” they all said. You know like on the airplane where you take the oxygen first. Yeah, yeah I responded.
