It Is 'Needed'!

Self-Care

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 12 months ago 1 min read
Even when you're working --- look after yourself!

“Self care

is how you take

your power back”

When we look after our Lives,

we are letting others know

that we are in Control.

Control of our Minds.

Control of what we are doing Today.

Control of our Futures.

When we schedule “Self-Care” into our daily routine,

we are ‘recharging,

refocusing

and prioritizing’

our own Health.

Mental,

Emotional,

And Physical.

We all work so hard

in our everyday Lives

that caring for ourselves

is a necessity.

Plus,

we Deserve a little pampering.

Self-Care is not selfish.

It is ‘Needed’!

To be the best versions of ourselves,

we need to practice this

every single day,

if only for ten minutes during our day.

For our Mental Self-Care

we can Meditate,

maybe Learn something that we have always wanted to Learn,

and we can set goals,

ticking them off as we go.

For Emotional Self-Care

we can do journaling every day

and do some form of ‘therapy’,

(my favourite is colouring).

For Physical Self-Care

we can eat healthily,

exercise sensibly

and make time to rest

to give our bodies time to rebuild.

All of this will Help us to

Feel Happy,

Strong

and Determined

towards Life.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
