Whether you’ve been directly or indirectly impacted by COVID-19, you probably feel some level of fear, stress, anxiety and helplessness over the whole pandemic situation. You may also worry about what the future will hold in terms of work, health, finances and the economy. While it is completely normal to worry in times of such uncertainty, it is so important that you do not let your worry consume you. To keep that from happening, make it a point to practice self-care on a daily basis.
Self-care is a broad term that differs for everyone. In a nutshell, however, self-care refers to anything you do to treat yourself well. Whether that means scheduling a round of golf on a Sunday morning while the kids stay with Grandma, indulging in chocolate and chick-flicks after the kids fall asleep, treating yourself to a peaceful nature hike or simply taking 10 during the weekday evening chaos, it’s important that you integrate a bit of self-compassion into your life to prevent burnout. Before you say you don’t have the time or the resources to pamper yourself, consider the benefits of making the time to do so.
