Three self-care things you did today!

[ecomama]

We can do it BBers, we can do self-care.

Sleepy21 pointed out research that shows self-care REALLY helps!

Please share what you do for self-care so we can get inspiration, ideas and motivation to do it too.

Best wishes

hi all - em ur right i am in process of trying to do more self-care, just getting started!

but today was so stressful i found it hard to identify them. This care is a lifesaver, through and through!

Not_Batman I'm embarrassed to admit I washed a mildly offensive show called Workaholics on Stan

it's really stupid but i'm laughing so that's the main thing 🙂

Great work everyone. Today I:

1) Well, technically it was yesterday - I made sushi. It's not too hard, but very involved and time consuming, and I'm a bit proud that I did it.

2) Am about to go for a walk and enjoy the (finally) nice weather.

3) Wearing shorts to show off the tattoo on my leg. Way too long since the weather let me do that, I've been freezing and in long pants almost constantly since I got it. >: |

Hi Blues Clues that's so cool - yay to enjoying the weather and sushi.

- Listening to an album I like in the background (Bon Iver)

- Hot shower and scrubbing my face with some apricot exfoliant...yum...

- Hot chai

WELL DONE peeps!

You're showing us how this self-care thing is done!

My self-care is involving learning how to relax lol!

Today I:

* ate a yummy sweet potato noodle dish with Asian sauces for lunch today. I had it heating in the crock pot all night and took a thermos of it to work. The rest is in the fridge for later.

* drank kombucha - I spoilt myself and bought a bottle ages ago... my daughter wants to show me how to make it but I think it'll be too stressful tbh, IDK.

* dressed up for work today. Nice clothes, shoes and earrings etc. Luckily for THAT because I had a surprise 1:1 meeting with my boss and weird news there!

* used a trick I saw on a show, to use perfume in my hair lol. I also tried an expensive hand cream just wiped through my hair today. It was nice smelling that!

* had a nap after work.

Love EM
