[IMAGE DESCRIPTION: Two manatees on open water, one appearing to kiss the other’s forehead. TEXT: “Basic care is not something you need to earn. You deserve nourishment and rest, no matter what.”] I know some of you can treat food and sleep like a low priority, especially when things get busy or stressful. Please remember to eat, go to bed, and drink enough water. They are important things that you need, not things you have to earn. If you haven’t eaten, drunk water, or are putting off going to sleep, let this be a reminder for you to do those things right now. (Image credit to Laurel Canty-Ehrlich)
