Self-Care Is Not Selfish

When we talk about setting mindful boundaries, it's useful to be reminded of why this is a worthwhile undertaking. Setting boundaries regarding your time (not over-committing or over-extending yourself), as well as prioritizing your self-care (making time for whatever "fills your bucket") is not about being selfish. In fact, it is not even about you. Setting mindful boundaries is what allows you to be at your best for your students, colleagues, friends, and family.
