Self Care Plan

​Self care - Something we have been neglecting for over a year. Self Care can be broken into 3 parts; Mental , Physical, and Emotional. Many of us have been working from home for almost a year. Our self care is non existent. It is hard to get moving when we have so many restrictions. Start with a small goal. Mentally you can read a new book, meet a friend for a walk, focus on the postive, and make sure you are taking your medication daily. Emotionally we can treat ourselves to a home spa day, hot baths, our favorite meal, start a creative project, take an online art class, or learn a language. Physically it is hard to get motivated to start moving. Start small, 10 minutes, three times a day or once a day to start. Pick one thing and add it to your routine, more water, 10 minute walk, less, sugar, just start. It is not a selfish act to start focusing on you. If we take care of ourselves first, and become the priority, we are better prepared to take care of others. Treat yourself with love,  and don't beat yourself up for taking time for yourself.
