Our Top Ten Tips for Self-Care

11/02/2020by Terry White

Taking care of your mental, emotional and physical health…

 

It may sound like a cliché, but these are generally the key ingredients for a healthy body and mind:

  1. Fresh air
  2. Movement
  3. Nutritious diet
  4. Good sleep

Just a few mind you. There are so many more:

  1. Accept who you are

Be true to yourself and authentic in your dealings with others. Forgive yourself for your own misgivings and release the pressure.

 

  1. Think about who you want to be

We are all reinventing ourselves all the time. Invest in understanding yourself and breaking those self-defeating patterns to create a better

version of yourself in time.

 

  1. Love

Only after you’ve accepted you for you can you expect anyone else to! Love and be loved.

 

  1. Stay Positive

Filter your thoughts. Throw out those negative thoughts that don’t serve you and surround yourself with people that love and encourage you.

 

  1. Be Mindful

Def. “a mental state achieved by focusing one’s awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one’s feelings,

thoughts and bodily sensations”

Be more present in the now. Forget the past. Don’t worry about the future. Just be.

 

  1. Deal

Life requires that we deal with the real world and take action to improve our situations – whether we want to or not. Keep calm and carry on.
