Moments to ourselves are few and far
between. Our planner overtakes our lives, and we can quickly feel out of
control, tired, and neglected. We hear about the importance of self-care, but
where do we start?
We covered the following categories:
1. Physical- Get your body moving!
Whether it’s a walk, run, bike ride, or another form of movement, make sure you
are enjoying the activity and not being too hard on yourself. This is
self-care, not a competition!
2. Social- Make time for friends,
attend parties, or grab dinner with a date! For the extroverts out there, most
of the tips listed below can be done with a friend.
3. Emotional- For me, my emotions
are often the most neglected. I take care of my emotions best when I am
journaling or when I take a long drive or nature walk and am left alone
with my thoughts.
4. Practical- All the tips below are
easy to implement. You don’t need to head out on a vacation or book a two-hour
massage–although sometimes those are a nice treat–you can start taking care of
yourself right now!
5. Mental- Reading or listening to
podcasts are great ways to put positive thoughts into your mind! Life Goals Mag
compiled a list of podcasts about becoming your best self.
6. Spiritual- Don’t neglect your
soul. It’s sacred. The Lord said, “Come to me all you who are weary and
heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.” –Matthew 11:28
Meditate, pray, and listen to what
the Lord has for you during those quiet moments to yourself. Tending to your
spiritual well-being will help you feel at peace about all the other parts of
your life.
Have a lovely Saturday
