Self-care tips

  • Meditate - Meditation can help to slow down your thoughts and center yourself. You can try meditating for two minutes, five minutes, or ten minutes. You can choose whichever one you feel the most comfortable with.

  • Exercising - Getting your body moving can be a great method of self-care. Take a walk or go for a run. Getting fresh air can be just what is needed.. 

  • Journaling- Journaling can help you express your thoughts or release your feelings. You can try guided journaling or jotting down your feelings throughout the day. 

  • Nourishing your body- Cooking can be therapeutic for some, so if you like to cook treat yourself by making your favorite meal. If cooking isn’t your thing, treat yourself by ordering your favorite meal.  

  • Setting boundaries - Setting clear boundaries for yourself and others is a form of self-care. 

  • Therapy - Therapy is a place where you can show up as your authentic self and express your feelings and emotions. 

  • Disconnect - Disconnecting from social media, emails or your phone entirely. 

  • Read - Read your favorite book or dive into a new adventure. 

  • Rest - Schedule a time where you can rest and relax!
