Marli's Blog: Self-Care 💖✨
Sunday, September 22, 2024
Hey! Let’s talk about something super important: self-care. 💆♀️ What does self-care mean to you? Everyone has their own way of doing it, and here are some of my favorite ways to unwind and take care of myself. Maybe you’ll relate to some of these! 😊💫
1. Me Day 👯♀️💅 I love having a Me Day with my friends. Whether it’s getting our hair done 💇♀️, hanging out in nature 🌳, or just catching up on life. Sometimes we watch movies 🎬, play games 🎮, or just chat and snack on something sweet 🍰. It’s the best way to relax and recharge.
2. Stimming as Self-Care ✋💫 For me, stimming is a big part of my routine. It helps me calm down and feel more centered. It’s kind of like my way of getting through the day when things get a bit overwhelming. 😌🔄
3. Getting Creative 🎨🖋️ Painting or journaling is my go-to when I want to get creative. It’s a great way to let out my thoughts and feelings without having to say anything out loud. Whether I’m doodling or writing, it helps me feel relaxed and happy. ✍️😊
4. Music = Instant Mood Boost 🎧🎶 Music is life! 🎵 I love putting on my headphones, turning up my playlist, and just zoning out for a while. It’s like a mini break from the world. It really helps me reset, especially when I need a little me-time. 🎶💆♀️
5. Prioritizing Sleep 😴💤 I’ll admit, staying up late is tempting 😅, but sleep is seriously important. When I get enough rest, I just feel better and can handle things more easily the next day. 🛌💫
6. Eating Well & Staying Active 🥗🏃♀️ Eating good food and staying active can do wonders for your mood. I try to move my body every day, whether it’s going for a walk 🚶♀️ or just stretching at home. And eating well makes such a difference too. It’s all about balance! 🥑✨
7. Reading 📚💖 Reading is one of my favorite ways to escape and relax. My bookshelf is full of fantasy worlds 🐉 and non-fiction books where I’m always learning something new. There’s nothing like getting lost in a good story. 📖✨
What does your self-care look like? 😊
Thanks for reading,
Marli 🌈
