If you’re scrolling this weekend and it feels like everyone is crushing their goals, eating perfectly, waking up at 5am, and “already feeling their best”… pause for a moment. Social media is a highlight reel, NOT a timeline you’re required to follow. Mid-January can be heavy. The new year shine has worn off, motivation can dip, and real life is still very much happening. That doesn’t mean you’re behind. It means you’re human. You don’t need to catch up. You don’t need to prove anything. You don’t need to turn rest into a failure. Where you are right now is allowed. Moving slowly is allowed. Taking care of yourself in small, quiet ways is more than enough. Let this weekend be softer. Less comparison. More compassion—for yourself. 🤍 Sending xo, Dr. Rachel . . .
