Personal Growth Journey

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…

  1. Do your nails
  2. Do your hair
  3. Journal
  4. Find a new hobby – painting, photography, writing, selling items on ebay, anything you love
  5. Create a vision board
  6. Drink hot tea or cider
  7. Formulate a new skin care routine
  8. Exfoliate!
  9. Practice Yoga or Meditation
  10. Read a book – I seriously love this one
  11. Listen to podcasts – search for some good ones online
  12. Get off social media
  13. Cook a meal that you have been craving
  14. Take a nap preferably with fuzzy socks and or blanket =)
  15. Color in a coloring book
  16. Write in your planner, organize your time
  17. Stretch
  18. Steam your face with a hot towel
  19. Write down ten things you loved to do as a child, do one of them
  20. Go for a walk
  21. Moisturize with almond oil
