뜻
Advising someone not to push themselves too hard or strain themselves.
문화적 배경
The phrase is a key part of 'Omoiyari' (empathy). In a culture where 'Ganbare' (do your best) is the default, 'Muri shinaide' is the necessary relief valve. Superiors use this to show they are 'White' (ethical) companies. It's a way to build rapport with subordinates by showing concern for their health. Hashtags like #無理しないで are used to support idols or creators who are going through a hiatus or a busy period. Doctors use this as a standard instruction for post-surgery or chronic illness management, emphasizing that recovery isn't about effort, but time.
Add 'ne' for warmth
Adding 'ne' at the end ({無理|むり}しないでくださいね) makes it sound much softer and more like genuine advice rather than a command.
Not for laziness
Never use this if you think someone is being lazy. It will sound incredibly sarcastic and rude.

자주 묻는 질문
4 질문Yes, but it's better to use '{無理|むり}をなさらないでください' or add '{体|からだ}に{気|き}をつけてください' to sound more respectful.
'Take care' is general. 'Muri shinaide' specifically targets the effort or strain the person is currently undergoing.
Simply '{無理|むり}しないで' or '{無理|むり}しないでね'.
Usually, you'd say '{無理|むり}しないようにします' (I'll try not to overdo it) rather than using the 'kudasai' form on yourself.
