How do you prioritize self-care in your daily routine?

Prioritizing self-care in daily life is a conscious process. I normally portion my day to be able to save a little time for myself. I begin my day with a relaxed and peaceful headspace. For the first part of my day, I do some meditation and physical exercise.

Furthermore, I eat healthy foods like fruits and veggies and protein along with water daily. This way, I feel good both physically and mentally. Well, I also make time for other things that help me feel good every night before bed, whether it be reading a book or watching a movie, etc.

In addition, I have daily mini-goals that slowly work towards a larger goal. I think it creates a strong sense of self-worth, which really adds to peace of mind and being sure in yourself. So not only is finishing all necessary tasks of the day in time a priority, but also making time for myself.

What activities help you relax and unwind when you're feeling stressed?

I do a bunch of things to help me reduce stress as much as possible, whether through meditating or just doing whatever relaxes me.

My first step is to spend more time in nature. Other times, I just take a walk to the park or sit for a few minutes on my balcony with some plants. And touching base with nature calms my soul.

I Do deep breathing exercises to relax my body and mind. Taking long, slow breaths helps release stress and relax my mental state.

One of my favorite things to do is read. It brings me so much joy. I also love to read books that encourage or take me from this world. Doing anything creative and artistic, like drawing, writing, or attempting to learn something new, always makes me de-stress and brings joy. Then, if I listen to music, that will make me more relaxing completely.

Why is self-care important for maintaining overall well-being?

Self Care for overall well-being

Self-care is to maintain our body, mind, and soul. It offers us the endurance to deal with day-after-day pressures and stress. Negative impact on body and mind due to ignoring self-care. Self-care is crucial to avoid stress, tiredness, and unwelcome depression as well as good physical health.

Our mental health is so important to our overall health. Lack of self-care can contribute to mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, and disheartening that will definitely have a serious consequence on our productivity and relationships with other people in life. Self-care means the level of appropriate rest, supportive food, and calm mental state that the body needs.

Putting yourself first is all about absorbing the good stuff in your life. It builds gratitude, creativity, and our grounding in life. So that is how the joy, peace, and fulfillment get added to our lives if we take care.

How do you ensure you take time for yourself amidst your busy schedule?

In the midst of a busy day, it can be difficult to make room for solitude. However, doing so is key to supporting our well-being. I make some space for myself in my everyday. I do not multi-task during this process.

For example, I meditate daily to be calm. This makes my day easier to start. This and then I actually have some rest in a place where I can chill out completely.

I shift between different responsibilities in order to have a little time for myself. At times, I must prioritize self-care over important duties because taking care of myself is the most crucial thing.

What self-care practices have you found most beneficial for your mental health?

I do meditation and exercise for the awesome mental health ahead. Meditation provides me mental stability and reduces my stress. Exercise to keep my body healthy and to calm down the mind.

Also, I take a social media break every now and again. It is really very significant in my daily mental peace. Being away from social “obligations” has turned out to be the best thing I could do for my mental health.

Writing or drawing helps me cope mentally, and learning anything new is the only way to keep my mental health in control. Just check my Steemit account and realize how much I love to draw.

There is also the fact that my family helps boost my mental health at times. But looking after yourself means you can become better at caring for others. So the foremost point is to keep mentally healthy and fit for everything else.
