Self-care is talking honestly with your sister\u00a0about how she hurt your feelings so deeply, instead of trying to let it go.<\/p>\n<p>Or perhaps you have a\u00a0job that just &#8220;pays the bills,&#8221; and you notice that when you let your volunteer work at the homeless shelter\u00a0slip,\u00a0you tend to\u00a0question\u00a0your purpose and feel down.\u00a0Self-care is re-prioritizing the activities that give your life joy and meaning, and making sure you have the energy to do them.<\/p>\n<p>Self-care is about engaging authentically\u00a0with yourself and others about who you are, what you need, and what you have to give. Some of the most giving people I&#8217;ve ever met have the most strict self-care practices.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Treat-Yourself-Kindly.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3818\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Treat-Yourself-Kindly-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Treat Yourself Kindly\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>How One Selfless Person Does\u00a0Self-Care<\/h3>\n<p>One of my new favorite ways to &#8220;fill my inner well&#8221; is listening to <a href=\"http:\/\/onbeing.org\" target=\"_blank\">On Being<\/a>, a fabulous podcast on &#8220;the big questions of meaning&#8230;what it means to be human&#8230; and&#8230;how we want to live.&#8221; An interview with a social activitist, Zen meditation practitioner, and Catholic nun, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.onbeing.org\/program\/simone-campbell-how-to-be-spiritually-bold\/7654\" target=\"_blank\">Sister Simone Campbell\u00a0<\/a>,\u00a0of Nuns on the Bus,\u00a0got me thinking about the importance of service to others in our self-care practices.<\/p>\n<p>Simone Campbell is sharp, witty, compassionate and will completely change your image of the stuffy, old, habited nun rapping your knuckles with a ruler. She\u00a0lives her life in service to others. I was moved by her commentary on being open to what comes in the moment, and her ability to embrace the positive.<\/p>\n<p>But one thing Simone Campbell\u00a0said really troubled me.<\/p>\n<p>She said\u00a0people\u00a0often ask whether her many commitments and constant\u00a0travel are\u00a0exhausting. She noted that her reply is always the same:\u00a0she\u00a0only gets\u00a0depleted when she focuses\u00a0on herself.<\/p>\n<p>Uh oh.<\/p>\n<p>This is exactly what I ask you to do.<\/p>\n<p>Was I missing something?\u00a0I couldn&#8217;t understand\u00a0how could she give so much of herself if she didn&#8217;t engage in\u00a0self-care. But as I thought about it more, I understood that in fact, she has a very robust\u00a0and rich self-care practice, she just frames it differently.<\/p>\n<p>Sister Simone meditates every morning. She prays. She attends religious services. She lives in a community where she is deeply connected. She believes in a larger power and feels connected to it. She is\u00a0clear about her life&#8217;s purpose, her place, and the things she needs to do to maintain them.<\/p>\n<p>A life of service\u00a0brings her joy and energy because she\u00a0has a lot to give, so\u00a0giving feels good.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s a mistake that when we do something good for someone it makes us feel good too. I believe we are hard-wired to want to help each other. I also believe that without self-care, there&#8217;s very little\u00a0to give.<\/p>\n<p>For Sister Simone, self-care is her spiritual life.
