It's the first month of the New Year and you know what that means? With a new year come those all important resolutions. Some of the most popular ones surround getting more exercise, improving overall health or focusing on one’s well-being. With the start of a new calendar year, many of us look for ways to better ourselves. Making yourself New Year’s resolutions which are integrated with self-care is a great way to still set yourself goals, but ones that truly nourish and benefit you. In this article, we will be looking at defining acts of self-care, why they are important and how you can implement simple ones into your new routine.
What is Self-Care?
The concept of ‘self-care’ is fairly new but has been widely gaining popularity over the years. Self-care can be defined as a number of things, as it’s all about what you need personally, in that moment. For example, whilst many of us think of self-care as a way to preserve or improve our mental or physical well-being, self-care acts can also sooth, calm, energise and even, focus us. These acts can be seen as ways to consciously do things for ourselves, to improve how we feel on a daily basis.
One of the most important things to remember is that this concept looks different for everyone and varies from person to person. One individual's act of self-care might completely differ from yours. For example, some of the most common self-care acts include, adding in a daily walk, reinventing your skincare routine or focusing on getting a better night’s sleep.
How To Practise Self-Care
Having daily acts of self-care has a plethora of benefits. As said previously, this concept looks very different for every person, but the heart of self-care should be looking at de-stressing you, creating a relaxing environment and focusing on your mental wellbeing. Many of us deal with daily stresses and anxieties which can be combated by practising self-care. Setting yourself a list of personal New Year’s resolutions, which focus around any relaxing activities, which you both find enjoyable and beneficial for your mind and body, could be a great way to introduce self-care into your new daily routine. Any activity that makes you feel more relaxed can help to reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety and to lift your overall mood.
How To Make Self-Care One Of Your New Year Resolutions
Now we’ve talked about the ‘why’, let us delve into the ‘how’...
Implementing a few self-care elements into your lifestyle is one of the most popular New Year’s resolutions. This is because with everyone's busy lifestyles, it can be difficult to carve out some of that all important ‘me’ time.
Fortunately, when you choose to focus on self-care as one of your resolutions, you don’t have to worry about buying any fancy equipment or even making any massive changes to your everyday life. With a few extra moments dedicated to yourself and making those work around your other, regular commitments, you can easily make more acts of self-care one of your 2022 goals.
