1. Learning to love yourself is like learning to walk; essential, life- changing, and the only way to stand tall. - Vironika Tugaleva

Self-care helps you learn to love yourself and if you love yourself you will want to take care of yourself. They go hand in hand at every step. Which is why so many people don't take as much care of them selves as they so others. They don't love themselves enough to make themselves a priority. But if you don't love and take care of yourself how is that giving the best of you to the ones you love and to the world. You are worthy of love and care and who better to give it to you than you.


Let these self care quotes inspire you to love and take good care of you!
