Self-care isn't all facemasks and bath bombs. Even if you're not drawn to massages or wine and bath time, there are still self-care practices out there for you. When we keep ourselves busy at home and at work, we tend to temporarily brush aside any worries and concerns we have over our well being and general health. We tend to lead increasingly busy lives, and put aside niggly pains and aches, which often ends up making the problem worse. Our mental health gets the back burner a lot of the time and its time you put a stop to it.
It is weird how if you had an ongoing problem with your leg you would go see a doctor and get it checked out, BUT when it comes to some sort of mental health issue, such as a reliance on alcohol, we are an awful lot more reluctant to visit alcohol treatment centers. It is ridiculous how we don't seem to value our mental health as much as our physical health.
BTW, I 100% recommend putting your phone down for any of these activities. Really embrace this act of self-love you are providing yourself.
1. Draw yourself a bath... (okay now that that is out of the way)
9. Do a three-minute meditation at your desk
15. Marie Kondo your closet. PURGE PURGE PURGE!
21. Get yourself some quartz and moonstone for some calming vibes and new beginnings. Crystal collecting can be a very soothing hobby
27. Flail around your room in a super fuzzy robe while drinking tea from your favorite mug
31. Spray some rose water on your face and handle it
All of us experience stress at one point or another in our lives - a busy period at work, or if we are going through some personal difficulties, but when it begins to take over your whole life, it is time to consider helping yourself out.
If you can, ditch anything that is a drain on your life. Surround yourself with positive people and objects that make you feel happy. Be aware that social media can leave people feeling inadequate and stressed, so if you feel like something or someone is not helping, get rid of it/them.
