Lyrics from an old, old song are running through my head: “Take good care of yourself, you belong to me.” I’ve been concerned about a dear friend of mine and the song has been on “Repeat” for three days! The tune, however, does have me thinking about taking care of ourselves. There are so many aspects to that phrase. Does it mean eating right and exercising, not texting while driving, seeing our doctors regularly, getting enough good sleep, finding time to relax, and learning to say “no”? It’s all of the above and more. It’s a BIG job. Taking good care of ourselves requires mental awareness of that task.
