[Self-care is] The ability of individuals, families and communities to promote health, prevent disease, maintain health, and to cope with illness and disability with or without the support of a healthcare provider. - World Health Organization (WHO)

1. Take Time For Yourself In The Morning

Getting up early does not sound appealing to many people, but getting up a few minutes before you have to start your day can be beneficial for you. In fact, it may give you a positive lift that carries through the day. 

2. Connect With Your Higher Power

Make a concentrated effort to connect with your higher power daily.  

This can be done in the morning or anytime throughout the day.  Sit quietly, take a few deep breaths, and be still. 

4. Make Time For Friends

Having at least one good friend to spend time with can mean you are happier than those who don’t spend time with friends.  

I know life gets busy, especially for those who are raising children, but it is important to make time for friends. 

3. Write in Your Journal

Keep a journal of thoughts, goals, accomplishments, and anything else you feel like writing.  Keeping a journal throughout the years is a great way to gauge your journey through life.
