The quickest & easiest ways to put yourself first

Deb’s quote on the cover of Prevention Magazine this month says it all – “It’s time to put yourself first.” This seems like an impossible dream for most women who are always giving when it comes to family, career, finances and relationships.

In this interview, Dr Dain Heer discusses the pitfalls of constantly giving to others while ignoring your own needs and gives practical solutions on how to put yourself first to create life-changing outcomes.

He believes that taking the time to care for yourself will give you more energy to give to those in your life.

“For a half an hour a day, do something to nurture you,” said Dain. “It could be anything,” he said.

Dain talks about the impact this change has had on his sister, who is a busy wife, mother of four and business owner.

“The other thing you want to do (if you can) is block out four hours a week that is you time,” said Dain.

“It starts to give you a sense of value in your life,” said Dain.

“We are not actually being selfish in that, we are actually contributing to us, so we can contribute more to others,” said Dain.

“This idea of putting ourselves first is actually one of greatest gifts we can give to the other people in our lives and if we would recognise that we would have a different point of view,” said Dain.
