Recharging your batteries is important; do whatever it is you have to do to get this done. This is very personal, and it won’t always be the same as it once was.  Play cards with friends, be alone in nature, read a good book, have a cup of tea – whatever works for you. If you don’t recharge your battery, when it runs out you will have nothing left to give your loved ones. Self-care is not just about you.
