Self-Care Practices

The connection between mind and body is a powerful one and when you get down, so does your body and soul. They’re closely interconnected and affect one another immensely. Whether it’s because we’re stressed out and tired, feeling stuck in rut, or lacking motivation and energy, mindful listening and showing self-love can help rebalance your mind, body and spirit to create harmony, healing and health. 

Small practices of self-care can provide the calm and nurturing you need to offset the negatives and steady the whole self. Anything that makes you feel cared for, even if it’s you caring for yourself, counts – from a warm bubble bath, yoga session, or coffee with a friend to treat yourself to a manicure or luxurious massage at the spa. It’s not a one-time deal. Small, regular acts of self-kindness fuel physical, emotional and mental reserves and strengthen the connections so you get through the day and wake up ready to take on tomorrow.

Times are especially hectic, and taking care of yourself physically, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and socially has never been more important for staying balanced and healthy. Self-care is a priority, not a luxury. And it’s not being selfish. We’re all revving really high right now, keenly sensitive and acutely stressed by a myriad of issues, many out of our control, and the smallest things can set us off. Being chronically stressed impairs brain function, like mood and anxiety, and can show up as a distraction, demotivation, emotional volatility, and irritability. Stress promotes inflammation, which adversely affects heart health and chronic disease. 

To better cope and prevent some of the damaging effects stress has on your brain and body, be kind to yourself. Self-care will do wonders for your mood and motivation, health and wellness. Determine what activities bring you joy and repeat them – often. Making time to get enough sleep, eating healthy meals, staying hydrated, expressing gratitude, hugging someone and breathing deeply more often – are self-care basics that re-energize, and restore your balance so you can achieve all you want out of life.
