Hello Self Care Sunday!

Not sure who came up with the term ‘Self Care Sunday’, but they had the right idea and need a big Thank You!  After a long hectic week and task-filled Saturday, one can't help but look forward to Sunday. It's usually a day to unwind, enjoy family and friends and prepare for the upcoming week. Sundays are even better when you can get a little rest and relaxation. So why not incorporate a little self care and take care of yourself first?

Putting yourself first isn't a bad thing. It's actually good for you and everyone around you. It allows you the space and freedom to have a mental, physical and emotional reset. It makes you feel lighter, less stressed and essentially more pleasant to be around. Giving yourself permission to be selfish is a necessary expression and act of love. The most rewarding self care activities leave you energetic and recharged, happier and peaceful and able to appreciate the work-life balance. Utilizing self care is essential in creating the life we want to live.
