Let's Talk About Self-Care 💜
Hey hey, everyone! I hope you all are doing well 💜
There was a time when I found self-care not easy to practice. I always thought acts of self-care must be too elaborate to fit my lifestyle. With time, I came to realise that self-care is paramount for our overall well-being, but they don't always have to be anything big. They start with just very small acts of kindness towards ourselves 💜
For everyone,
1. What are some things you like to do for self-care or would like to start doing for yourself? Feel free to share with us! 💜
(For me, treating myself to a good book and a lovely cup of tea can do the trick. Sometimes gardening or long showers help me too 💜)

Good day, all 💜
Self-pamper and skincare 💆🏻♀️💅🏼🧖🏻♀️💕
Well I started running recently, possibly could be a form of self-care.
I keep on getting told that I need to get better at self care. It’ll provide balance and a store of energy to face any future challenges that come my way. For me - yes - it’s exercise and pampering. But it’s also taking the time to put some nice clothes on rather than a hoodie. It’s making sure I put some music on. It’s calling my mum just to chat rather than to talk about ‘stuff’.

Thanks for the amazing post Nutella!
What are some things you like to do for self-care or would like to start doing for yourself?
Some things I do to practice self-care are:
~ setting strong boundaries
~ sleeping enough
~ checking up on my emotions frequently
~ organizing my tasks
~ make sure I'm having healthy amounts of social interaction because i tend to withdraw a lot and eventually that results in loneliness
~ spending time with my grandmother because she's the coolest person ever and helps me relax!
Things that I want to include:
~ getting frequent exercise
~ spending more time in nature
~ some physical self-care

To be honest, I’m not good at it. My bad habit is to only do it when I was at my lowest point lol. And when I do, it’s usually meditating, journalling, playing games, reading books..
When I’m in my best version, usually I’ll bask in the sun or enjoying blue sky, being grateful with what I had. That’s how I take care of myself and my mental health. If I feel extra, I’ll go find something sweet like cake or chocolate :)
@amazingNutella24 thank you for giving emphasis on self-care, nutella! c:

I love sleeping.The best thing ever!
I make sure I take time just to focus on myself. Indulging and lazing about is perfect for in between serious workout sessions and working hard at my job. I like the polar opposite behaviors to compliment each other to form a more well-balanced mindset.
Self care for me is a cup of tea and a book or having time to do some art. I love to paint and draw. I also write to my pen pals and enjoy that immensely
