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
EM

Stayed in bed longer than normal and read
focussed on what I had done
laughed about forgetting something instead of berating myself.

Hey quirky!
Thankyou for posting your self-care things!
WOW you reminded us that replacement thinking is a self-care thing!
LOVE YOUR WORK! lol.
My 3 self-care things:
* bundled my list of errands and did them all in one (long) hit..
* finally went to Return and Earn and got $27.90 which is AWESOME. This was supposed to be for my self-care jar but it'll have to go towards Christmas presents for the kids and grandkids.
* got to have a quick visit and a cuppa with my daughter - SO NICE!
Love EM

Great work, all. EM, I'm curious about this return and earn. Is that can & bottle recycling, or something else?
Today, I:
- Made muesli and yoghurt.
- Got the payoff from some earlier self-care, my fancy D&D and Warhammer 40K dice arrived, and they're gorgeous.
- Decluttered a bit.

Sleepy oh yeah boundaries... aren't they SO important as we begin to tune into when it's a good time to leave? lol.
Blue - OMG you would LOVE Return and Earn!
I'll pop over to your Managing money thread and spill it out there.

Hey EM - boundaries - so important. It's easy to not go to things or just go even if u dont want to - i can do that. But leaving is a real challenge. To just check out when we need it - no need for a fancy excuse. Learning as I go 🙂
How are u?
Today I -
- watched an episode of a tense drama (loved it)
- Listened to a podcast
- Sent a message to a person who is caring and has not heard for me for a while
