It’s so hard as a person with (chronic) illness to remind oneself that you don’t need to push yourself to extremes as soon as you feel a bit better, to make up for the times your body didn’t allow it to happen. I’m so glad you took this break, and glad that the community has shown you love and support. I for one will keep revisiting your newsletters, they’re really helpful! Sending love!!✨

Pacing is something I'm still learning! it's hard not to get ahead of yourself at the earliest sign of going "back to normal", whatever that is anymore. Glad to hear you're still reading on your own xx

Loved this perspective. I definitely related a little bit, as I'm learning that pushing myself too far isn't really worth it very often. The comments on beauty standards were interesting and felt really true too.

glad some of it resonated with you. The beauty standards/ self love/ body positivity conversation is something I've gone back and forth on for some years now and still haven't found a clear answer for...
