Say YES to yourself

So you gave everything to everyone else but you - your family, your husband, your parents, your siblings, your friends, your team…

BUT

Did they ask you to give everything you had? - Probably not.

Did they ask you to give everything you had until you were completely depleted, empty, DRY? Certainly not.

This is the flip side to the giver. We give, give, give without even questioning ourselves if it’s were we should be or what we should be doing - giving everything we have (in terms of our energy) just feels so natural…

But the thing is that when it comes to taking care of yourself and your fertility journey, putting yourself as your priority number one - you don’t know how to do that anymore - you’ve already lost touch with yourself. Unnatural is now to say NO to others and YES to yourself.

We simply did it because we thought it was our “magic gift” to the world - but it’s not...

You can’t help others if you don’t help yourself FIRST.

You can’t take care of others if you don't take care of yourself FIRST.

You can’t love others if you don’t love yourself FIRST.

When you only GIVE and don’t allow yourself to RECEIVE - even if during some time you manage to find deep strength within you that allow you to keep going - one day you wake up feeling empty, dry - and you don’t even understand why, what happened, what’s happening to me?

DRY is what we become when we don't take care of ourselves.

DRY is what we become when we give everything to others.

DRY is what we are when we have nothing left, no energy, no desire, no option.

DRY is what we are when we get to the exhaustion point.

And it's kind of challenging to grow new plants on dry land.

You need WATER - the most important element for us from the moment we are conceived.

You need LIGHT - the warmth of the sun on your skin.

You need AIR - nourish yourself with fresh air, learn how to breathe deeply.

You need to OPEN - yourself to new ways of thinking and looking at your everyday life.

You need to NURTURE yourself - every single day.

You need FAITH - unwavering FAITH

On your fertility journey, one of the first most important thing is to start to say YES to yourself and NO to others - YES to what makes you feel good, your priorities, your desires, to what you love doing and NO to (almost) everything else.
