Learn to comfort yourself. 

 

The longing for someone to share your burden can be worse than head hunger. But you will not always be able to get in touch with your support system. So, you will benefit from learning to comfort and support yourself.  

Can you treat yourself to an afternoon of reading alone? How about going to a yoga class or getting a pedicure? There are so many ways to comfort yourself. Find what works for you. 

Action for the day: What feels really comforting to you (that isn't unhealthy)? Make a list to refer to when you are disconnected or lonely.

I'm glad you didn't post this idea yesterday...I don't think I was in a very receptive place to think this one through.  But it's a good idea today...lol.  You're so good at making us "think" about stuff.  You asked me yesterday what you could do to help me.  Well, it's this kinda stuff, so you're doing it.  You inspire me everyday, Jill...you give me cause to look at things that I forget to consider.  How'd you get to be so smart anyway??? LOL

Hugs!

HA!  I can't take all of the credit....Katie Jay writes these and I bring them here.  They just happen to be on target for that day (for me too). But, thanks for the kind words.  I figure, we are all in this together and it takes a village to raise a child.
