When You Are Overwhelmed Don't Forget to Take Care of Yourself

I stopped exercising because I was under stress. My husband injured himself and could not work and I was not able to pay for all the bills. Also, I needed to take care. I was working doubles, getting into work very early and getting home late at night. I felt I could not keep up with all the bills.


I had to help my cousin. She had no one around and I was the only one who she trusted. She ended up in the hospital with terminal cancer and I felt I was the only one she can count on and I couldn't ler her down in her last days. She passed away last month and I am ready to get back to my routine.

My daughter accidentally runned the car into my husband and she injured him. He needed prompt medical care. After that, I needed to deal with my husband's injury and recovery, and also my daughter's trauma and help her understand that it was only an accident. 


I was pregnant and we were looking forward to having my little girl and when I was not expectign it, I lost my baby. It affected all the family and of course, myself. It took me time befire could got over the depression, but now I feel better.


Those are some of the stories I can tell you I heard from some of our members... 


If I sit here and write all the problem testimonials, I would be writing a complete book of problems that we all face in life.


Nobody is immune from problems…

Sometimes we don’t have to deal only with one problem alone. For example, the first example I gave you in the beginning of this article, our member had to deal with her husband's injury, the bills, the leg inputation of her father in law, and payments that were not coming throuh on her husband’s business. It seems like there are some times when problems are waiting for you at your most vulnerable moment.


Many times when these types of issues happen all we can think of is overcoming these problems... 


But I recommend that you don’t forget about your health and do eveything that you can to distress, eat healthy and exercise. 


If it happens that you can’t exercise because you need to work doubles to sustain your family for a couple of month, at least eat healthy and find time for you alone to think about what is going on and understand that everything will be just fine. God will never let go your hand.

And whenever you have seen the light and you are ready to take care of your health, do it...

Don’t wait until everything settles to pefection because there will always be problems. Don’t forget that thanks to your health and sanity you were able to overcome such problems and you also need to take care of yourself.


Go and take care of yourself.
