Just how sometimes I don&#8217;t give myself a break. Last week was tough for me, you realize you can only take on as much as you can handle before you break. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">James, my massage therapist, told me that a muscle can only take on so much before it just gives up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can only take on so much before you just give up. Last week I gave up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week I gave up on being aware, I gave up on mediation&#8211;I gave up on myself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know I am only human. I know I can&#8217;t stretch myself or my muscle past the point of overworked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week I asked, how do you know when to take a break? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is when you no longer have the energy to do the things that make you smile. That get you going. In my case its when I can not find the energy to create. It&#8217;s when I don&#8217;t meditate and watch my thoughts is when they go crazy and take over my life. It is when you give up on yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How can anyone be there for me when I can barely do that for myself? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How can I be there for anyone when my cup is low? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Give ONLY from your overflow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today I created. In a few hours I will post a Youtube video, I hope you watch it and enjoy it. I hope you hear my message and I hope you give yourself the space and time to take a break and fill your cup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I love you.
