Summer Self-care tips

Slow down in the morning. For most of us, summer means no morning drives to school. The kids get to sleep in and you have a chance to get some time for yourself.

Think about what you can add in for yourself. Maybe it’s quiet time, a brisk walk around the neighborhood, or just taking enough time to shower and get dressed for the day. What have you been wanting to do that you don’t have time for?

Spend time outside. Nature is healing and being out in nature can work wonders for your mood. Plus, getting some time in the sun each day helps with Vitamin D production. Here’s a link on how to safely get your Vitamin D from sunlight. 

You can also try hiking, walking near water, finding new trails around your city, or bird watching.

Clear out your social media. Following someone whose posts triggers feelings of inadequacy, anger or jealousy in you? It’s time to hit that block button. Or, at the very least unfollow.

You can also try spending less time on your phone. A part of my nightly self-care routine is putting my phone away. I used to be on my phone right up until I fell asleep. Now, once the time hits for my night-time skin care I make sure my alarm is on and my phone gets put away. This way I focus on winding down, prepping for the next morning and spending screen-free time with my husband.

Try a new hobby. This is my favorite form of self-care. I’ve re-learned how to crochet and love using Skillshare to learn so many new skills. I’ve done art classes, crochet classes and photography classes. If you are a lifelong learner you should check out Skillshare. Learning a new hobby can help with depression and anxiety.
