@movementbygigi: I’ve been sick for the last couple os weeks, and honestly… resting has been harder than I expected. Not because I don’t know that my body needs it. But because life doesn’t stop just because I’m not feeling well. There are things I need to do. Gym😭 Work. Responsibilities. Content. Life. And when you’re used to being the person who just gets things done, being forced to slow down can make you feel guilty. Like you should be doing more. Like you’re falling behind. Like you need to get back to normal as quickly as possible. But my body has been reminding me of something I’m still learning: Taking care of yourself is also something you have to take responsibility for. I can’t build a strong body by constantly ignoring what it needs. And maybe discipline isn’t always about pushing through. Maybe sometimes it’s having enough self-trust to say: Today, my body needs me to stop. And that’s okay. 💔❤️🩹😭 #fy #latina #healing
