Five Realistic Self-Care Tips For Mind, Body And Soul

How many time you confuse self-care as laziness? I bet you’d be feeling guilty each time you have to put aside some things just to take care of YOU!
But every time you go through the week or month without reserving your self care break, you’ll feel overwhelmed.
Self care is no magic! You become more connected to yourself once you start giving it a little bit of attention. Self-care is extremely important to a healthy lifestyle and does not hurt. 

 Pamper Yourself

 “Just get in the shower and get dressed”, we do that everyday and sometimes in a rush. Yet, finding time to pamper yourself doesn’t have to be during your vacation. Turn off your alarm, take a long shower or bubble bath, go experience a massage or create a spa day right at home with music, wine or whatever makes you feel confortable. Also, schedule your bed time early that day in order to get enough sleep.

Leave The Comfort of Your Home

If you read my previous posts, you’d notice how  I am a big fan of spending time outside. Being outside will decrease tension and make you feel less depressed. Therefore, go and enjoy mother nature; at a park, a lake or anything that involves a fun outdoor activity.

Laugh out loud

We live in a world where so much is happening and this is why laughter should be your best medicine. Laughter also improves your mood and connect you with your loved ones. During your self-care moment watch a funny movie  and If you enjoy music; turn up the tunes, have a silly break dance, shake your booty and dance around. I can assure you, this will put a smile on your face. You are not alone… If you haven’t danced to a song until you tired; you are missing out in life honey!!!

Treat Yourself  With A Good Meal

With a busy schedule, eating  healthy can be very demanding . You grab anything and have no interest in  knowing what’s in it because it is simply readily available. So, on your day off, a nice home cooked meal is a great way to balance your diet and if you don’t cook it’s OK to book yourself a table at descent restaurant for a healthy meal.

Gratitude

Gratitude is defined as readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness.  It’s a blessing to wake up everyday, mind your business, go to work, eat or do whatever you are supposed to do. Sometimes, you can become ungrateful when you have not reached your goals in life; nevertheless, you are not in the same place from three, five years ago. Trust me, many people would love to be in your position and don’t have the opportunity because life can be a THING!!! Therefore, If you are grateful enough for what you have, take it in consideration and pay it forward. Now don’t get me wrong; I am not asking you to spend money you don’t have. But, landing a hand by voluntering, mentoring and giving is all part of “paying it forward”.
