Do You Deserve Self-Care? Rescuing the Rescuer…

Helping–”Want to” vs. “Should”

There’s a big difference!

When you help someone…are you giving because you WANT to, or because you feel like you HAVE TO or SHOULD?

Notice how different those 2 types of giving feel. Giving authentically tends to feel uplifting, empowering, energizing. In contrast, giving out of “obligation” or “should” can feel heavy, dreadful, and often leads to anger, frustration, loss of control or even resentment.

Which way would you rather feel? Which type of giving would you like to do?

How have you noticed this in your life? I want to hear!  Leave a comment below.  :)
