"There is nothing more precious than your relationship with yourself."

~ Ram Dass

Untreated chronic stress can lead to chronic tension, which leads to chronic fatigue, and eventually chronic illness. This is a shared journey of many people, and they find themselves often asking, "Why me?"

Our bodies are designed to handle environmental pressures, but prolonged exposure can take its toll. Many of us only realize the importance of self-care when facing chronic illness and then seek magic remedies out of fear.

Hope alone isn't sufficient, and living in fear is detrimental. The key is putting in the hard work aligned with our whole-body truth. Understanding and loving oneself is crucial in recognizing the impact chronic stress has on the body.

The story's moral

Aiming for the top rung immediately often leads to repeated falls. Instead, take it slow. Focus on where you are now. Set achievable micro-goals, such as mindful breathing today and a 20-minute quiet walk in nature tomorrow, and continue building from there. Write them down and commit – a loving relationship with yourself is invaluable.
