Today I practiced self care by...
Hello people of RO
I wanted to make a thread where we could all keep track of our self care and encourage each other to take care of ourselves.
Today I practiced self care by taking a break from my assignment for some fresh air. How did you practice self care today?
...buying lots of fruit and veg, and only having a smoothie for breakfast, after a busy holidays of overeating lots of junk foods! Time to get my eating habits back on track
Good thing I have all day to practice my self-care afterwards! I might go swimming later!
Today I practiced self-care by reading back through my threads and taking note of all the wonderful suggestions and advice this community has shared with me so far. I've been needing a boost and the reflections provided the support I was looking for! 😊
Excuse the shitty photo quality, but here are some of the things I noted..
I hope you guys are also able to find them helpful ❤
@MB95 I really love the idea of writing down all of the different ideas that you've had from the forums, how awesome to see it all there 🙂
Today I practiced self care by walking the long, scenic way to work, and I'll do the same on my way home - I took some time out from social media and listened to a long form podcast instead, it made me feel much more refreshed and ready to start the day. So nice to feel a bit of rain on my face too!
Buckling down and getting. stuff. doneeee! like cleaning my room top to bottom, grocery shopping, running errands, and having a break from Christmas related chores and fiascos
The vibes we are going for
Also, I had milo for breakfast instead of nothing.
Thank you for the inspiration!
I'm definitely jumping on this bandwagon later today. Epsoms salts are the best for a relaxing bath!
-I smelt a flower
-noticed the beauty of the river I walked next to
-listened to the cars and trams passing
-tasted the tooth paste still lingering in my mouth
-felt the ground beneath my feet
Swimming always makes me feel so much better about life, @xXLexi_Lou122Xx. Maybe I should go for a swim tonight, you've inspired me!
Today I practised self-care by watering my houseplants. Watching them grow nurtures my soul.
Today I practiced self-care by painting my toe nails, doing a face mask, cleaning my room, calling my mum and going to the movies/dinner with a couple of my workmates.
I've been struggling alot lately and haven't practiced self-care in a few months or connected much with anyone but after reading some of the posts on RO I was inspired and reminded of just how important self-care really is so put the day aside for it and am so glad I did 😊
so much fabulous self-care! WOooo
My self-care the last few days has been taking some time out to just relax with some colouring in. I photocopied this from a book from Rita Berman, and I've had so much find just colouring. It's not finished yet, but it's felt so fun!
I've also practiced self-care by taking time off work and utilising the full length of my doctor's certificate from work. I have stressed a couple times about taking the time off, but something mum said to me last night made it feel right "what is more important; work or your health?" Obviously my health! 🙂
