You may feel empathetic today, with a heightened sensitivity to the feelings of others. This empathy could urge you to serve others in meaningful ways such as volunteering at a charitable organization or devoting more time to friends and loved ones who are in need of assistance. While you likely have the resources and desire to help others, you may also wish to devote some quality time to yourself so that you don't become too enmeshed in the struggles of others. You can take time to engage in self-care activities such as meditation or journaling, or you might consider enjoying activities that inspire you, such as creative pursuits or entertainment options in your area. This will help lift your spirits and provide a feeling of joy that you can then spread to others in your life today.

We can better serve others in love and joy if we take time to engage in enjoyable activities to lift our spirits and energize our bodies. Though a strong sense of empathy can often help us understand others better, it can also result in feelings of fatigue as we devote most of our attention to them. By taking time to honor our own needs for self-care and recreation, we contribute positive energy to our own welfare, which helps us feel more energetic and inspired. This gives us greater motivation and stamina to then help others in meaningful ways. You can best help the people around you today by choosing to engage in activities that fulfill and inspire you.
