English term or phrase: that we learn to care for ourselves
En un artículo sobre autoestima de docentes:

"It is very important **that we learn to care for ourselves**, if we are to care for children. We know that we need to 'be positive' when working with children, but being positive is a deceptively difficult skill. Our behaviour is greatly affected by how we feel. If we are feeling good, it is easy to be positive, that is, think positive, look positive and say positive things. If we are feeling a little down, it becomes much harder to identify anything positive! "

¿"Que aprendamos a preocuparnos por nosotros mismos si vamos a cuidar niños"?

  -> Si se siente reconcomio (ojo: no dejar morir esta palabra tan sonora) cómo amar a los demás. No quiero sonar solemne, pero se me "parte el alma" cuando veo cómo van desapareciendo vocablos bellísimos.
