Self-Care Sunday: Reading 

This weeks highlight is one of my favorite hobbies in the entire world: reading! Nothing helps calm my nerves more than retreating into the world of someone else for hours and hours on end; which is why I love reading so much!  I’ve been reading for as long as I can remember, but I know…

Self-Care Sunday: Exercise 

This weeks highlight for self-care is one that not all of us may love, but know is very necessary; exercise! Lol!                      Photo cred: Google  Exercise is not only critical to improving your self-care, but it’s also beneficial for your overall health in general when paired…

Self-Care Sunday: NO!

How many times do you say no to someone when you don’t want to do something? Are you the person all of your friends and family go to, because of your innate ability to always tell them ‘yes’? We all inherit this nasty habit, don’t we?  We say yes to things we really don’t want…

Self-Care Sunday Highlight: People

Aligning yourself with the right people can be some of the best therapy you can attain. Some may look at people and think “nah. When I’m about self-care it’s just about me”. I feel you, and I agree; most of my self-care is selfish me time and I don’t want to be bothered with the…

Self-Care Sunday Highlight: Laughter 

The age-old quote says “laughter is good for the soul”, and I couldn’t agree more.  Ask yourself, when is the last time you laughed?  When is the last time something made you giggle uncontrollably.  Also, ask yourself how you felt after you had a good, hearty laugh.  Whenever I laugh, it’s like medicine to numb…
