It's been a little while since I've blogged, but I feel like I have something worth putting into words. As we this year towards the home stretch of 2021, with many preparing for Holiday celebrations with filled with shopping, food, and family, there comes with this the inevitable business leading many into distress and leading to decisions that we come regret and come up with resolutions to combat in January. In addition to this, covid-19 remains in the forefront of many people’s lives bringing with it illness, isolation, and bitterness that puts damper on our spirits and also is harmful to our health: physical, mentally, and even spiritually. So, the first mention of embracing self care is easy to disregard. We all are I’m sure familiar with the self talk, “I’m too busy for that” or “I’ll get to that sometime later.” But maybe we should realize that this is when we need to address self care the most. I recently listened to a podcast from Jimmy McKay’s PT Pintcast titled:
Sharing my reflections, insights, and (hopefully) humor as a Rural Acute Care Physical Therapist and Man of Many Hats as I try and play my part to advance the PT profession; stay balanced as a husband, father, cyclist, homebrewer, and occasional painter; and embrace my inner geek. My thoughts are my own.
