The first golden rule of self-care (DW#674)
One of the most important things to know about self-care is that it is individual. Your needs and my needs are different. What works for me may not work for you.
However, while there is no "one-size-fits-all" self-care plan that you can simply download and adopt, it is a good idea to attend to wellness in all the various domains of our lives.
Here are the various domains that need our attention:
Physical
Mental and intellectual
Emotional
Social
Vocational
Spiritual
So, let’s do a quick check in: how are you doing in these domains of your life? Chances are that you will be better at taking care of yourself in one area than others. Some of us are great at exercising but have a challenge with connecting to others. Others may be great at keeping their relationships strong but struggle to eat well or sleep properly.
If we can attend to the hitherto neglected areas of our lives and take baby steps in this area, we will see a big impact in our wellbeing.
