What does self-care mean to you?

You might've paused and thought to yourself, self-care? Who has time for that?

Hear me out. The way self-care looks for me, isn't going to look the same for you, and THAT IS OKAY. Could your definition of self-care be finally committing to signing up for that gym membership you've been eyeing? What about taking that bubble bath that you desperately need? Or, is it simply just taking a few minutes to yourself?

The reality is that many of us are burned out and the idea of self-care almost seems impossible. One thing I have come to realize on my journey of self-care is that I am happier when I focus inward. A lot of us feel guilty if we make time for ourselves. Does that sound a little familiar? Well, if this resonates with you, then LISTEN UP. It is OKAY to make time for YOU!

You cannot pour from an empty cup, and sometimes filling that cup means dedicating some time to caring for yourself. I want you to self-reflect on what's keeping you from that self-care that you truly wish for. Make a list of what self-care looks like for you, and every time you are able to check something off your list, see it as a success. 

Focusing on self-care won't happen overnight, but the sooner you start your journey, the sooner you will feel better about yourself. 

You got this!
