Collection: Self Care
Self-care is the practice of individuals looking after their own health using the knowledge and information available to them. It is a decision-making process that empowers individuals to look after their own health efficiently and conveniently, in collaboration with health and social care professionals as needed.
“It's not selfish to love yourself, take care of yourself, and to make your happiness a priority. It's necessary.” “How we care for ourselves gives our brain messages that shape our self-worth so we must care for ourselves in every way, every day.”
What emotional self-care means is to become aware of, and identify, what you are feeling, and then allow yourself to lean into the feelings in a way that honors yourself and your emotions. We can try to ignore, deny, overbear and suppress our emotions, but eventually they come out, one way or another.
Engaging in a self-care routine had been able to reduce or eliminate anxiety and reduce stress, reduce depression, improve concentration, minimize frustration and anger, increase happiness, improve energy, and more.
