The ABCssss of Self-Care! 🥰
Hey hey everyone, hope this post finds you doing well. 💛
Care to join me in this collaborative game where we build an alphabetical list of self-care activities, tips, or concepts? 🥰
How to play?
Each person will contribute one item, starting with the next letter of the alphabet.
Here's how it works:
I'll start with 'A'.
The next person will share a self-care idea that starts with 'B'.
Then 'C', and so on!
You can share anything that helps you feel better, recharged, or more balanced. It can be a physical activity, a mental practice, an emotional strategy, or anything else that falls under your definition of self-care. 💛
Consize answers are welcome, but feel free to add a tiny bit of context if you like (e.g., "M - Meditating for 5 minutes, helps clear my head!").
If we get stuck on a letter, someone can jump in, or we can collaboratively brainstorm for that letter. If we complete the alphabet, we can always start over or pick a new topic!
All set? 💛
I’ll begin with “A”
A- Affirmations
The next person seeing this, please share a self care activity or idea starting with the letter “B” and don’t forget to tag your 7 cups peers to join the fun-care!
Together let’s build a list of self-care ideas for the community! 🥰

N - Nom nom your favorite foods and snacks 🍜ヾ( ◍•⤙•◍ )ﾉ🍕
Eating your favorite foods can contribute to your wellbeing by boosting your mood and providing a sense of comfort and satisfaction.
When you eat something you truly enjoy, it can trigger the release of dopamine and other mood-boosting neurotransmitters in your brain, leading to feelings of pleasure and happiness.
Familiar and comforting foods can evoke positive memories and associations, providing a sense of security and emotional well-being.

S - Serotonin from Sunshine 🌞💖o(^▽^)o💖
Sunlight exposure can trigger the release of serotonin in the brain, which is associated with improved mood and feelings of calm and focus. (☉⋆‿⋆☉)💗
Serotonin, also known as a "happiness hormone," plays a crucial role in regulating mood and emotional well-being. ( o˘◡˘o)💗
That serotonin you soak up from the Sun's rays does more than boost your mood – it might also help you get more restful sleep at night. (ᴗ˳ᴗ)💤💗
Evidence suggests that Sun exposure can increase the density of dopamine receptors in certain areas of the brain. ୧(｡╹▿╹｡)୨💖
@VictoriaLove7
This is so informative and cute, Vicc, thanks for sharing! 🥰
Soaking in some natural sunshine is really good for the mind body and soul, it nurtures our brain and it also supports bone-health, according to science and ayurveda! 💛
