Start & End Your Day with A Little Self Care

Like any new habit, incorporating self-care into your life can be difficult. You’re probably wondering how you’re going to manage to find time to do something extra for yourself, let alone how you’re going to remember to do those things. One of the best ways to start is to build your activities into predictable parts of your day. For something to become a habit, it has to happen regularly. Read on, and I’ll show you some tricks for making self-care a regular part of your life.

Make it personal

The first thing that will help you create your self-care rituals is choosing activities that are meaningful to you and that you enjoy. Since it’s your own practice, make sure it’s tailored to you so you can get the most out of it. Make a list of things that help you feel relaxed, peaceful, excited, or happy. These activities should be doable in a short amount of time and easy to incorporate into your life without the need for special equipment or tools. At least at the beginning of your practice, the things you do should be as simple as possible.

Add it in

You should incorporate your self-care rituals into the most convenient parts of your day. Choose times that are already reasonably flexible so that it is less stressful to incorporate something new into that time. Many people opt for a morning or evening routine right after they wake up and before they go to sleep. Getting up fifteen minutes earlier and setting aside a window of time during the usual night’s rest is doable for most people. However, it may be better to use your daily lunch break as a time for self-care. Consider activities like writing a journal entry about your gratitude before bed, listening to music over your morning coffee, or taking a short walk during your lunch break. Try it out, but find a moment each day that you can make your own.

Be flexible

It’s best to develop a routine that works for you and stick to it. Sticking to a specific schedule can help you develop a habit and ensure you get the self-care you need. However, try to give yourself some time. Some days are more hectic than others. You may not make it through your scheduled self-care activity, and that’s okay. Tomorrow is a new day, and you can try again. Soon you will feel the desire to do these rituals, and it will be easy for you to get back on track.

Practicing regular self-care doesn’t have to be difficult. By adjusting your schedule a bit, you can give yourself more breathing room. Choose things that refresh you and are easy, and getting started will be a breeze.
