✋💛 Don’t Apologize for Having Needs: No More Justifications

Welcome to the 365-Day Self-Trust Salve ✋💛

I’m no longer available for:
apologizing because I have needs.

Many of us were taught that having needs meant being weak, needy, or being a burden.
So we learned to downplay them.
Justify them.
Or...ignore them altogether.

Over time, this becomes another form of self-sabotage.
We use other people’s needs as a reason to bypass our own.
And slowly, self-trust erodes.

Let’s pause here. 🌬️

Your needs matter.
You do not need a reason to need rest, space, care, or desire something for yourself.
Your existence is reason enough.

Just like the oxygen mask on an airplane, your needs come first...
so you can continue to share your gifts, your presence, and your light in the world.🙂

If you’re unsure what you need right now, that’s okay.
That’s actually the invitation.
Start by asking: What would I love? 💜

One more day of choosing self-honor over guilt.
One percent more kindness toward yourself today. 🌱

Your body is your one lifelong companion.
Smile as you look after it. 💛🙂
