I’ve really been burning myself out this past week, throwing myself into school and extra curricular activities. This has caused me to feel more drained than usual, tired, unmotivated and sad, and I haven’t been taking any time to myself to heal and repair myself. Here are some self care ideas I want to try out this weekend in preparation for a new week of school!
