Self-care is not:

● Selfish
● Expensive
● Hard to do

● Taking anything away from others
● A waste of time
● Indulgent
● Unnecessary

Self-care doesn’t have to be extravagant. It can be a simple task that is meaningful
to you and makes an impact on your daily mood. Activities as simple as starting the
day off with a cup of your favourite coffee or ending the day with a bubble bath are

two possible forms of self-care.

The best way to care for yourself is to ask yourself a few key questions:

1. What small things really make me feel good, loved, pampered, or indulgent?

2. What are two things I can have or do each day to remind myself that I matter?
3. What is a weekly activity that restores me, and that I need to remember to
schedule for myself without fail?

4. What are the self-care activities or items I need available each month to keep my
mental wellness at an optimal level?

Now, fill in those blanks.

Here’s a list of daily self-care ideas:
● Morning prayer/meditation time
● Whole, nutritious foods for meals

● 30 minutes of exercise
● Reading
● Time in nature
● Quality time with family
● Pillow talk

The choices are endless, and they are yours to make for yourself. Choosing yourself
first at least once per day is a loving gesture that builds your resilience to fatigue

and burnout. It is not selfish, and can even help reverse the effects of fatigue and
burnout once they have set in.
