What’s been lost in all of this is that genuine self-care is not always comfortable, and it doesn’t always look like an Instagram-worthy treat. It looks like going to therapy when you’d rather not. It looks like saying no to the thing that’s draining you. It looks like recognising that if you are permanently exhausted, the problem might not be that you haven’t bought the right candle, but instead that something in your life is asking too much of you.
