Quick and Easy Ways to Practice Self Care

self-care Reward yourself

Let’s face it. The world can be overwhelming. And a lot of us don’t get the rest and relaxation that we need. Whether we’re commuting to work or helping a busy family with their activities, our own needs often fall by the wayside. So how can you practice self-care if you’re pressed for time? Maybe you don’t have the time to do yoga in the mornings or jog in the afternoons. But you can incorporate some quick and easy habits into your daily routine to feel better about yourself.

Enhancing Your Skincare Routine

Most people wash their faces at least twice per day, and dermatologists often recommend that people use moisturizers. But are you actually doing as much for your skin as you can? There are some products that might help ease discomfort, slow signs of aging, and make you feel better in your skin. For example, you’re probably aware of how important it is to get enough vitamin C in your diet. But are you aware that there are vitamin C benefits externally, too? When you use a vitamin C serum on your skin, the antioxidant helps to smooth, moisturize, and tighten your skin. As you get older, your skin will begin to sag. This is because of a lack of collagen. 

Collagen is the protein that keeps your skin tight and elastic, preventing wrinkles and sagging. Substances like vitamin C, vitamin A, and vitamin E help to increase collagen production and fight signs of aging. Similarly, if you’re often dealing with dry skin or eczema, you might want to add more moisturizing lotion to your daily routine. What’s most important is that you feel comfortable in your own body.

Changing Up Your Bedroom

When was the last time you took a look at your bedroom? Does it look the way you want it to? Do you have enough furnishings and decorations to make you happy? If you feel like you’re stagnating, you can try moving your furniture and decor around a little. And if there’s anything in your room that doesn’t make you happy, consider switching it out for something more suited to your tastes. You can do the same in other areas of the house, like your living room and kitchen. You deserve a living space that makes you happy.

Having Alone Time

Whether we have high-powered careers or care for our kids, we tend to be in-demand. Maybe you need to make your children’s lunches and drive them to extracurriculars. Maybe you need to meet ridiculous deadlines set by your boss. Sometimes it feels like the world will end if we aren’t constantly available. So, one of the best things you can do for yourself is to carve out some alone time. This is time when you’re not worried about your kids, your job, your friends, or anything else. You’re just doing something nice for yourself. During this time, you might engage in hobbies like painting, or you might take a hot bath to soothe your muscles.
