I’ve come to realize that Self Care doesn’t just happen, it requires the same planning and diligence that anything else worthwhile needs. I’ve also realized that self care isn’t just massages, warm baths, and spa treatments, it is also eating healthy, getting enough sleep, and making myself a priority. My Self Care Manifesto outlines how I’ll take care of myself over the next year.
I will put my own needs first unless there are extenuating circumstances and I make a conscious decision to do otherwise.
I will eat healthy.
I will exercise daily.
I will get enough sleep every day
I will feed my soul daily.
I will connect to spirit daily.
I will be fiscally responsible.
I will make kind choices.
I will not hold anger in my heart.
I will not apologize for existing nor offer any apologies that are not necessary.
I will honor my body.
I will love and honor all of me.I will live life with an open heart.
I will connect to nature regularly.
I will not take everything personally.
I will only fly at reasonable hours and I will limit connecting flights.
