Now self care doesn’t always mean day spa’s and long baths. It often means;
✨eating well
✨exercising
✨going to bed earlier
✨spending less time in front of technology
✨practising better breathing
techniques
It’s not particularly fun, exciting or glamorous. It’s not often worthy of talking about or posting about BUT is it is crucial. 💖
If one of your goals this year is HEALTH (like me) or avoiding BURNOUT, or life / work BALANCE then self care is KEY.
So what do we need to do?
Understand that when life gets busier, it’s tempting to speed up but you actually need to slow down.
Have a look at your day or week - what self care habits do you need to be doing?
Now imagine what life for you looks like if you don’t do those self-care habits
😭how are you going to feel?
😭what are your days going to look like?
😭how long before you break?
Do the self-care even if it means less time to do everything else. YOU are important and your mental health needs it
& remember the more capacity you have, the more capacity you have for others. You will be a better YOU, a better friend, partner, parent, clinician, employees etc.
