So true Liza. We need to 'nurture' ourselves to be in a state that's more receptive to that 'still small voice.' That's what I've always found.

Nurturing ourselves can take on many forms ~ I love the term 'forest bathing' and for me one of the best forms of nurturing I can give myself is an early morning walk in our local bushland or even just my own backyard. Sets the energy for the day.

And yes, it's so important to not give up on the things that are near and dear to us. ⚖️
