Cheryl Richardson interview by Elizabeth Phillips "New Year, New Rules"

Body & Soul: You recommend that self-care be everyone's top priority, going, so far as to say that if you don't, "you're always holding others at emotional gunpoint." Could you elaborate on that?

Cheryl Richardson: That quote from poet David White hits home to the underlying reason why we really need to make our self - our emotional, spiritual, and physical self - the priority. The truth is that when you're not honoring your self-care -- not taking time for the things that are important to you, not developing your inner life, not taking care of your physical health -- then you're always harboring some kind of resentment. [...] Suddenly we've got a nonstop inner critic in our heads, and then we wonder why we're so miserable.
