Summer is in full swing! It’s a time to relax, have fun, enjoy life, and take care of you. Sounds great, right? Except…maybe you have difficulty doing this because you are feeling exhausted, stressed, or overwhelmed. Maybe you feel selfish taking the time to make your happiness a priority. Self-care is healthy. Self-care is necessary. Taking good care of you provides a good role model for others. Having fun and enjoying yourself is infectious and when you are happy, the people around you are more relaxed and happy too. Counselling provides an opportunity to talk about concerns and can help you learn better self-care in times of stress or difficulty. Isn’t it time for you to relax, have fun, and enjoy life?
