Everyone is saying take more time for yourself. Thinking about letting your to-do list go and jumping in a bubble bath creates more anxiety than refreshment because you have so much on your mind!  We get it!  

We have learned that self care is about a lot more than bubbles and baths.

Practical Self Care that won’t leave you more stressed and behind: 

• Take 10 minutes to clean the kitchen before you head to bed 
• Each day after, take 5 minutes to look at your schedule for the day and mentally prioritize where you need to spend your energy and focus. 
• Take 2 hours on the weekend to prep and plan meals and snacks for the week. 
• Buy back some precious time and use instant cart or grocery pickup.
• Spend time with friends walking or meal prepping.  We are creating and building quality relationships and also setting ourselves up for success for the week.
• Start your day with a healthy breakfast. You would not believe the momentum this will build for you throughout the day. 
• Make time to move your body. Either getting the gym, going for a walk or meeting friends for a Zumba class. This is the self care that keeps on giving! 

These things may be adding tasks to your day but the goal is to add to give back.  They will give your the joy, peace of mind and fulfillment that will keep you energized and crushing the week no matter how busy it is! 

Self care is all the rage these days!  We really do need to recharge so that we can keep the high paced, scheduled to the max lives that we all live. But how do you do that?  

If someone tells me to take another bubble bath I am going to scream!

Self care does not have to be bubble baths and pedicures.  If you are feeling stressed to the max and not sure how to restore or recharge without feeling more behind.  Check out our Practical Self Care Tips!
