I took a break from reading fiction around the time I found my religion. I was spending my time outside of work studying and learning. Then I got married, had babies, and started grad school. Now that my babies are more independent and I'm starting a new chapter, I have returned to reading fiction. It's my hobby and my self-care. So instead of waiting until I "have time" to read, I just do it...before I get too tired at night or busy on the weekends. I carry a book with me or download on Kindle or Liby in case I have time while waiting in line or for curbside etc. If reading is your self-care, just do it!
