It’s been an overwhelming few weeks, months, years. What seemed like a short term stress has now become daily life, and its important to acknowledge it and ensure you are taking care of yourself. Self care is a buzzword right now, but what does that really mean?

For me, it might be something like ordering a nice meal for takeout, going for a run, or treating myself to new skincare. But, it can also be little things you do in your daily routine. They don’t have to be grand or expensive, but just taking those little moments to rest and pause.

If you’re finding yourself feeling exhausted or burnt out, take a moment to do one or two of these activities. Even better- goal yourself to take time to do one each and every day. Put down your phone, take a few deep breaths, and remind yourself that you’re doing the best you can during a really hard and traumatic time. You got this!
