Getting adequate sleep is an essential part of self-care. Many people do not get enough sleep or sleep poorly and accept that is just how it is. If you have difficulty sleeping or the quality of your sleep is poor, I suggest engaging in good sleep hygiene practices or habits that foster a good night’s sleep.

Self-care is anything we do for ourselves to increase or maintain the wellness of our mind, body and soul. I always encourage people to meet themselves where they are. We’ve got to start somewhere and every step toward our desired health is a step in the right direction.

Taking breaks is helpful to avoid physical, mental and emotional exhaustion. Awareness, self-permission and planning may be necessary to getting the break you need.

Spring is a great time to do some cleaning up and clearing from the outside-in and the inside-out.

Taking a natural approach to caring for your body is helpful to keep it functioning optimally. Awareness regarding chemical exposure is a great place to start.

Relaxing baths are a great way to warm up and relax during the winter months, or anytime. 

What have you done for the health of it today? This is a good question to ask yourself and to commit to doing something/s to care for YOU every day.

The new year is a great time to make changes within yourself and your life to reflect what you’d like to create.
