How to create a nourishing self-care routine that can help you feel calmer, more centered, and better able to face the challenges of the world around you.

Self-Care 101

Q: I want to take better care of myself, but I’m having trouble committing. Any tips for creating a good routine?

A: Intention is key! That’s the best place to start. You said “routine,” which may sound less-than-exciting; but, honestly, excitement is overrated. In fact, our bodies respond very well to routine at all stages of life. And we feel so much better, and act more considerately, when applying consistent self-care.

The basics include making healthier dietary choices, getting enough sleep, being well-hydrated (with mostly water!), moving every day, and practicing forgiveness. There are so many triggers that can throw you off balance. Some you can control (such as how much sugar you put into your mouth) and some you cannot (such as, let’s be honest, other people). Keeping your emotions on an even keel goes a long way toward maintaining composure and equilibrium. You’re less likely to get bent out of shape, if you maintain your own inner calm, deep breathing, and intent for harmony.
