“It’s okay to take a break. Rest if you must, but never give up.” These wise words are a gentle reminder that caring for oneself is crucial to achieving mental health. Sometimes, life’s obstacles feel too much to handle; therefore, taking a step back and giving our mental health priority is acceptable.

Taking a break is a show of strength and self-awareness, not weakness. By allowing ourselves to take breaks and recover, we refuel our bodies and minds and are better equipped to face obstacles head-on. Resilience, remember, is about acknowledging our boundaries and respecting our need for self-care, not about persevering despite tiredness. Take a deep breath; give yourself a moment. You did great today; you have gotten this far. We’re so proud of you! Remember that you deserve to relax and recharge.
