We normally celebrate Labor Day to recognize those who labor and work all year. Which of course is our holiday to rest, relax and self-nurture. We tend to fill the day with family events, picnics and end of summer activities. Where is the self-nurturing? You could say, being with family and friends is nurturing, this is true but are you relaxed or are you actively caring for others?
Self-nurturing is getting away by yourself. Take that walk in the woods, alone with the dog. Sitting under the tree with a favorite book to read. Enjoy nature, that is part of nurturing your self, you can stop and smell the flowers, touch the grass and the leaves. Self-nurturing makes you feel good. You deserve this self-nurturing, labor free holiday.
