Let’s clear up one common misconception from the get-go: Self-care
is not synonymous with self-indulgence or being selfish. Self-care
means taking care of yourself so that you can be healthy, you can be
well, you can do your job, you can help and care for others, and you
can do all the things you need to and want to accomplish in a day.
3 Quick Ideas to Destress
1 – Self Care Ideas – Take Photos
Take some photos of your loved ones, or pets, or just of yourself, just have
fun and create something beautiful to look back on. Maybe do a photo
diary of your day or head off out and take some photos outdoors.
2 – Self Care Ideas – Tech Free Day
Switch off the tech, put down your phone, turn off social media and have a
tech-distraction free day. See how you feel at the end of it – Did you miss
it? Did you enjoy it?
3 – Feel Good Ideas – Feed the Birds
You can feed the birds even in the tiniest of gardens or balconies – scatter
some seeds, add a bird feeder, or even make your own. You could even mix
up some homemade fat balls for the garden birds and tie them from the
trees with pretty ribbons.
