The idea of self-care can seem to oppose the selflessness taught by the Christian message of sacrifice but it isn’t such a new or contradictory idea.
Life encourages us to juggle many different things at the same time and balancing those things can mean that we often feel exhausted and lost.
Jesus knew the importance of withdrawing to rest, pray and eat. He said, ‘Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.’ Mark 6:31
It isn’t about being selfish but about respecting and cherishing the temple of the Spirit that is your body and mind, you will struggle to look after others if you don’t allow yourself to stop and just be, ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’ Mark 12:31
