Weekly Wellbeing: DIY Self Care Inventory

This week's activity is about developing an inventory of self care strategies.
I saw something similar online and thought this would be a great Wellbeing idea!

 

Steps:

  • Cut out or rip out strips of paper.
  • Write down or draw some self-care strategies on the strips.
  • Put them in a bag, box or jar.

When you next feel like you're in need of some TLC, pick a self-care strategy from your inventory!


Some optional ideas:

  • Decorate your inventory however way you like.
  • Laminate the strips of paper and turn the inventory into a bottle filled with sensory goodies such as water and glitter or slime.
  • Include things that make you feel calmer, such as favourite perfumes, skincare items or fidget toys.
  • Have inventories tailored to a particular emotion or symptom.
  • Make an inventory with activities that you can do with a support person. You could include movies you haven't seen, etc.
  • Make an inventory filled with affirmations and inspiring quotes.
  • Use different colours for different types of self care.
  • Any other possibility you can imagine!

Have fun and feel free to post a photo of your inventory or describe what you put in it in this thread! 🙂
