When we’re weighed down by the heaviness of feeling alone, it can be hard to even think about conjuring up the energy to be connective, much less actually reach out to others. But we can start small by making little investments in our own energy bank to build the internal resources we need to look outward. Remind yourself of your worth by taking time just for you.

 Ask yourself: when was the last time I did something just for the pleasure of it? What’s a small thing I could do today for my own Good? A nap? A trip to the park? Create something.
