Taking Care of Yourself

Because you are responsible for the welfare of another person, taking care of yourself is doubly important. You need to stay rested, refreshed, and energetic, both for yourself and the person for whom you care. That means taking good care of yourself physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually, socially, and financially. If you don't take care of yourself, inevitably there will be tension. Your relationship with the person you are caring for will suffer, and other areas of your life may be negatively affected.
So, take care of yourself!
