#daily selfcare

Todays Self Care idea: Take a 20-minute power nap. If you can’t sleep, lying down and closing your eyes also helps to feel more rested.

Thanks to everyone who has followed this month in selfcare project! I still have a few self care ideas left, that I will post sporadically over the next weeks.  I hope you’ve all enjoyed it so far and could take away some basic strategies for your own selfcare :)

Todays Self Care idea: What do your friends like about you? Ask 3 friends of yours what they appreciate about you. Write down the answers and continue adding uplifting statements in the future.

Todays Self Care idea is a breathing exercise for stress and anxiety: 

Inhale for 6 seconds - hold your breath for 6 seconds – exhale for 6 seconds. Repeat the exercise for 2 minutes.

Todays Self Care idea: Ask someone for help with a current problem. New angles or a helping hand can make things a lot easier.

Todays Self Care idea: Time for a break. Plan a  spa day for yourself, a trip or small vacation that you always wanted to do.

Todays Self Care idea: Invite a friend to talk about the positive things in your life right now. Also, ask how your friend is doing.

Todays Self Care idea: Make an overdue phone call. Call someone you haven’t talked to in a long time. Ask them how they have been.

Todays Self Care idea: Be as gentle and loving to yourself as if you were your own best friend. Find 10 things that you like or apprechiate about yourself.

I’ve been contemplating how I should show my finished bachelors thesis on Self Care on social media. I will share some photos of the finished project, but I thought it would be more beneficial if I uploaded a part of it for you to use.

I have designed a Card Set with Self Care ideasand I will share with you one Self Care prompt every day for the month of February. You can then try to incorporate the Self Care activity into your daily life or save the idea for later if you want to :)
