The speaker discusses the importance of prioritizing self-care in a busy world. She emphasizes that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and should be honored. Many people neglect self-care and put their physical, mental, and spiritual well-being at the bottom of their priority list. The speaker urges listeners to take care of themselves and not rely solely on doctors for their well-being. She shares the example of a friend who sends her care packages and encourages her to prioritize rest. The speaker also highlights the need to set boundaries and not let others drain our energy. She advises learning to say no and not trying to please everyone. Neglecting self-care can lead to burnout and feeling unfulfilled. The speaker concludes by providing information on how to support her work and encourages listeners to reach out to her. Welcome to Faith Alive in 5, the 5-minute gospel. Now here's your host Dr. Faye. Welcome back to the series on restoring balance in life in a busy world. And today we want to take a deep dive into prioritizing self-care. How do we prioritize self-care? Well first of all we got to care for ourselves, right? In 1st Corinthians 6 and 19 it says that, do you not know that your bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit who is in you? I like to say within you, whom you have received from God. You are not your own, you were bought with the price, therefore honor God with your bodies. I mean he put bodies up there, it's pretty important because that's where he lives, inside of you, inside of me. So in our busy lives many times we forget to prioritize these bodies that we have been graced to live in on this earth and we put them like at the bottom of the list. We don't work out like we should, we don't eat like we should, we stress about everything. I'm saying we as a collective human. And we allow ourselves to be dragged down and drained and mentally and emotionally strained and drained because we did not prioritize these temples. In a busy world, with a busy life, we need to care for our physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. So we put the burden on somebody else. We want the doctor to take care of us, give us the medicine, and we don't even give ourselves the medicine of self-care. I know, preaching to the choir here, I know, I know you're busy, I know you feel overwhelmed, I know you have stuff to do, important stuff that you have to do, but at the same time, do you not know and realize if you're not doing it, somebody else will do it if you're no longer here to do it. I have a friend, Myrtle, who is a true ambassador of goodwill, who sends me these care packages and I take the time to open those boxes and they're like pretty that, you know, threw up on my bed. All these beautiful things and bubble baths and all these salts and I use them faithfully. Every day I'm using something that Myrtle sent me because she cared enough about me and my self-care. I've got to care enough about me and my self-care to use it. Sorry Myrtle, didn't mean to call you out like that, but we need friends who can say get some rest. You need people around you that won't drain you and always expecting you to go along with everything they're planning. They make you part of their plans and you don't want to be part of their plans. You don't want to be invited to everything. You don't want to be the queen of volunteer or the king of volunteer. You don't want to win that prize. You just want to live your life and be as happy as you can be in these bodies for as long as you can remain in these bodies and, you know, next week I'm going to talk about setting boundaries because a lot of us don't know how to do that. We want to be liked. We want to be appreciated. We want some emojis and social media. We want some likes and comments, good comments. So we try to be people pleasers and it's draining you. It's straining you. I know pastors who have passed away suddenly even in the pulpit because they were allowing parishioners, i.e. people in the church, to drain them. Call them in the middle of the night for anything and everything. My dog ran away. You know, pastors can tell you stories of things that happened and people had no respect for the person because they put themselves out there as a savior of the world. Darlings, we already have a savior. We don't need you on the cross. We don't need you on the throne. You don't have to be a martyr to go and allow people to do whatever they want to do with your time. Learn to say no. It's a complete sentence and it's a power word. Put it out there. Oh, she turned it down. Oh, he turned it down. It's okay to do some self-care because as long as you're running, you cannot meet yourself. As long as you're doing stuff, you won't know you. Other people will have you, but you won't have any of you left. So, therefore, you end up being burnt out, overwhelmed, having this awful feeling on the inside that you did not fulfill the call of God on your life because you were too busy letting everybody else call on you.
