In a society in which people are expected to work long hours and pass on vacation days, there is an underlying belief that we must always be productive – which can ultimately take away from opportunities for self-care. But by taking some time out to engage in self-care, you may relieve the pressures of everyday life and reset yourself to get back to a healthy point where productivity is once again maximized.
Remember that self-care is all about you. What works for one person may not work for another, but that’s the beauty of a self-care routine. Perhaps some suggestions you have heard in the past did not work.
Please do not be discouraged. You are encouraged to continue searching until you find the best fit. The catch, though, is that it must be done both intentionally and consistently to have maximum impact.
In this episode, Abena shares how she's taking her of herself and tells us that having a sleep routine is one of the most important things you can have as an adult to keep you going without breaking down!
