Urgent Self-Care – Navigating Discouragement
When you’re going through a stressful time, it’s easy to feel stuck, like every day is just more of the same. In those moments, self-care is a crucial tool for helping to keep your head up and guide you towards the better days ahead.
Our Relieving Anxiety practices are meant to guide you away from thoughts of discouragement, and towards personal contentment and satisfaction. Adopting a new bedtime ritual, using mindfulness to center yourself throughout the day, and getting outside for walks and exercise can all help you return to your old self. So get ready, because brighter days are on the horizon.
In the Moment Practices
The stress and strain of emotional burnout are all too real. And often, it feels the most overwhelming at the start of the week. You’re not alone. Use this simple, soothing snow globe practice to calm your mind and think more clearly.
Sure, hand washing is basic hygiene but it’s also an opportunity to quiet your thoughts.
At Home Practices
Lack of sleep can lead to burnout and can trigger or exacerbate a number of physical and mental health issues. Use a nighttime sleep ritual to wake up energized and refreshed.
A daily walk can be the perfect opportunity to get up from your chair and take in some fresh air. Although walking alone can benefit your physical health, strolling with a companion can boost your mood and overall wellbeing.
