Yeah, there's two things. Okay. There's not one thing, there's two things. One of them is what we've already spoken about. And it's the cliche of putting on your oxygen mask first, okay? If you do a five-minute action for yourself each day, I promise you, you will be better able to look after whoever you have to look after in your life.

When you think you don't have any time for yourself, that it's all on that person. And frankly, take this away from being a caregiver for a sick elderly parent. What about mothers? or an autistic child? Yeah, like my practice was full of, well, many people for years, right? But I saw a lot of mothers who literally never gave themselves any time.

Everything was for their partner, their parents, their children. Like they did nothing for themselves. They didn't feel that they could. And actually one of the biggest things I would teach a lot of my patients throughout the years was that I gave them, well, I didn't teach them this. I shared with them how important it was.

And a lot of them would come back to me and say, hey, dog, you know what you've done for me? You've given me permission to relax. You've given me permission to look after myself. Even if you've got the most tax and care job in the world, I promise you have five minutes for yourself each day, right? You have five minutes to nourish yourself. That will make you a better carer.

It will make you kinder. It will make you healthier. And it will really do something quite special to how you view yourself. So that's the first thing I'd say. The second thing I'd say, and it goes back to why I believe a daily practice of solitude is the most important thing. Hmm.

if you sit with yourself each day, whether it's a three, four, five breath, or you just frankly sit in silence with your cup of coffee and you're not scrolling email at the same time, you will start to feel things in your body, right?

So Mel, what was going on for years with me that I never knew because I was too busy and I didn't have solitude was when my stress load is building up, I start to feel tightness in my right upper back. When I was so busy, I never paid attention. Now, because I have a daily practice of solitude, when I feel that tightness on my right back, it's like an early warning signal.
