Does it really matter?

We have been taught or at least heard of in our lifetime that Sunday is meant for a day of rest. I have noticed more and more the evolution of the tagline "Self Care Sunday" popping up in every spiritual group, coaching practice and social media feeds. I have found this a bit misleading in my own world as if somehow only one day is meant for self care and that self care means booking a massage, or lunch with friends, or whatever outward experience makes you feel better.

What if self care became a conscious choice each and every day and we embodied it as an outward AND inward experience? A beautiful balance of taking care of ourselves as well as enjoying the experiences that help support our self care? What would this look like for you? 

Examples of how I support my inner self care:
  • Consciousness of how I speak to myself and others understanding that my verbiage is powerful and imprints many including me. (what you put out comes back)
  • Daily gratitude practice that helps me stay in a higher frequency
  • Drink half my body weight in water (in ounces) each and every day and make sure I add to that when working in shared energy with clients
  • Read a page or a few pages each and everyday of something to expand my mind
  • Listen to thought leaders who help expand my knowledge and heartspace
  • Meditate every day to expand my connection to self, others, mother earth and the animal kingdom 
  • I have a balance of days on and off to support my need to rest and create 
  • I ask for what I need
  • Have very healthy boundaries for my time and energy that do not waiver
Examples of outward self care that support my inner work:
  • Walks in nature with my dog, hubby and/or friends
  • Book a Massage 
  • Lunch/dinner/coffee dates with friends for laugh fests
  • Energy Work
  • Hire others to help me when I need it (my recent publisher and designer of my Animal Wisdom Candles)
  • Pedicures
  • Events that fill my heart, mind and soul
  • Speaking engagements
There are so many options of what self care looks like and it is different for everyone as everyone's needs and wants are different and evolve as they do. The point is, don't wait for Sundays. I know it's a catchy tagline to use especially in business but remember we learn by watching and listening to others and consciously or not these words and actions imprint and impact us all. Self care is a necessity, not a one day a week gig nor is it a luxury.

So ask yourself this, what does inner and outer self care look like for me and how can I start taking steps in my everyday to implement what I truly need for alignment and balance?
