Happiness Matters

Self Care is not Selfish

Self care is not selfish or indulgence. This is especially true if you are a caretaker, work in a caring profession, or identify as a caring person. Think of self care as the fuel that allows you to care. Self care empowers you - no matter who you are - in all you do.  Self care includes taking care of your body and your mind. It includes giving yourself enough time to rest.  Self care is taking care of your sleep problems and giving yourself enough time to get at leas 8 hours of sleep a night. It includes doing something physical on a regular basis that you love to do, whether that is stretching, going for walks or spending time in the great outdoors even when your life feels so busy you hardly have time to breathe. It includes eating foods that are good for you, and taking your vitamins - including vitamin D in these dark days! Self care includes recognizing that your feelings matter and taking them into account in your daily life. These are just some aspects of self care. Take stock of your self care. If you think that maybe some of the things you do to care for yourself may be harmful in the long term or are leaving you in a cycle of hurt, we encourage you to talk to your doctor and see if you can find ways to care of yourself so that you are flourishing physically and mentally.

Taking care of yourself means doing things that make you feel good. Simple things like resting and going for a walk help. Talking kindly to yourself and taking breaks when you're tired is important, too. Remember, you matter, so treat yourself gently and do things that make you happy. This article is very helpful to know about self care. I also found some informative content on it. You also can check on this site.
