Whenever I’m sick, I’m very kind to myself. I eat whatever and whenever I feel like. I stay in bed. Watch tv. Cuddle with my dogs. Take long showers. I let my body decide what I can handle each day and what it feels like it needs. Sometimes it’s nice when my husband goes to work and takes our daughter to preschool. I’ll get tea and chicken noodle and have a day to myself to binge some tv and take naps.

Oh definitely! Its so important to be kind to yourself, there is a part of me that’s still trying to learn that its OK to take that time for yourself. When it comes to food I like to think if it “sounds good” to me, its probably because my body is craving minerals and vitamins in that food, so I dont hold back on anything. Long showers are the best feeling when sick, the steam and warm water is perfect.
