Being a caregiver is one of the most rewarding yet demanding roles, and it’s easy to overlook your own needs in the process. Remember, you can’t pour from an empty cup. Taking time for self-care isn’t selfish—it’s essential. Whether it’s a few minutes of deep breathing, a short walk, or asking for help when you need it, small moments of rest can make a big difference. Prioritize your mental and physical well-being so you can show up as the best version of yourself for those you care for. You matter too. #CaregiverSupport #StressManagement #SelfCareForCaregivers #MentalHealthMatters
