🌿 What Does ‘Self-Care’ Look Like for You Lately? 🌿
Self-care isn’t always bubble baths and candles (though those are great too! 🛁🕯️). Sometimes, it’s as simple as getting out of bed, saying no, or making time for something you love. 💬💖
✨ What’s one thing you’ve been doing lately to care for yourself - even if it’s just getting through the day?
Let’s share ideas, support one another, and maybe even pick up a few new self-care habits. 💡🤗

I’ve been taking time sitting outside, going on walks to places I haven’t been, drawing with music playing, baths.
Listening to my body. Resting and saying no when needed ❤️
Self care is crafting and crocheting for me along with crocheting. I am currently crocheting black sweaters for my daughter, friend and a yellow blanket for my adult son.
Are there any fellow crocheters in here?
I do like bubble paths but don’t take them as often as I probably should for self care.
I hope you have a great day!
@elekhika making time to talk to god the lord , doing something you love , ignoring someone that hurts yourself Ignoring someone from your past trying to not let it get to you walkway and smile self care means a lot to me
its spa days facials and meditation mindful checking in with yourself
@elekhika one thing I do daily is get up out of bed to face the days l. If I don’t have plans I try to find things to fill my time.
- Trying to get enough rest.
- Neti pot, for irrigating my f***ed-up sinuses.
- Mostly avoiding alcohol.
@elekhika i’ve been going on pinterest before bed! i love pinterest because it helps me visualize my dream life. i try to go on it once a day!! <3
@elekhika Thank you for prompting this question! I've been trying to go for a walk, even if it's just 15 minutes. It can feel silly at times, but then I have to remind myself that it's better than nothing and that it's still a bit of a movement. Also trying to make sure I eat as much veggies as possible. I'm living with a partner who, to put it mildly, would not chose veggies first, so that can be challenging sometimes.
Recently, self-care has been listening and believing in my own instincts. I have been recently given the chance to fulfill a dream of mine, so, I'm trusting the belief of those in me, and believing that I can take on the challenge. I've also been trying to change the way I think about my life, despite finally feeling my career is becoming more and more stable, I feel there is still something missing in my life. So, I'm trying to be more positive about it and find ways to fill in the gap. So, it's a work in progress.
