Here are 30 things you can incorporate into your self-care routine. As mentioned on yesterday’s post, self care is critically important in maintaining your mental health and well-being. The term is used often but I would describe self care as anything you do that makes you feel good and prepares you to take on life’s challenges with energy and passion. So here goes…
- Do your nails
- Do your hair
- Journal
- Find a new hobby – painting, photography, writing, selling items on ebay, anything you love
- Create a vision board
- Drink hot tea or cider
- Formulate a new skin care routine
- Exfoliate!
- Practice Yoga or Meditation
- Read a book – I seriously love this one
- Listen to podcasts – search for some good ones online
- Get off social media
- Cook a meal that you have been craving
- Take a nap preferably with fuzzy socks and or blanket =)
- Color in a coloring book
- Write in your planner, organize your time
- Stretch
- Steam your face with a hot towel
- Write down ten things you loved to do as a child, do one of them
- Go for a walk
- Moisturize with almond oil
- Decorate your space
- Sleep earlier than usual
- Write down 3 things you are thankful for
- Post your goals in plain sight
- Get a foam roller and use it – these things are really really amazing
- Re-read an old favorite book
- Essential oils! need I say more?
- Go sightseeing in your own city
- Do something you’ve been putting off for a long time
What will you incorporate into your routine as we approach the new year? What other ideas do you have about self care? What new hobbies have you been wanting to pick up but haven’t?
Thanks for reading!
