My self-care is going to the nail shop and taking trips by myself. Or just simply getting me a hotel in the city and enjoy my me time.

Remember to ALWAYS care for self.

For self-care, I love to pray/meditate, drink coffee/tea, and imagine myself (if I can’t actually be there) on a beach in Destin

In the morning after I wake

then I workout

Lastly I drink an energy fruit smoothie

To take care of myself, I like to treat myself to all my favorite things and remind myself that I deserve it! Get a pedicure, pray/journal, go on a solo date to lunch/dinner/coffee, curl up with a good book, or just take a nap. We, as educators, spend so much time taking care of others and putting the kids needs first that we forget ourselves. Hope you guys take care over the break! Love yall!

Reading fiction novels is my favorite way to practice self-care! Nothing better than escaping the stress of this world by immersing the mind into another :) bonus self-care if my cats are snuggling with me while I'm reading.

I spend time with friends or watch TV with my girlfriend. I recently took up crocheting and have been enjoying the challenge of it. I love to learn about new topics and dive deep into them. At least once a week I set aside a night for date night. Even if it's just ordering bad Chinese food and watching her favorite show. (Currently is Grey's anatomy on Netflix)

My newest self-care I do is to...stop rushing. I allow more time to travel from one thing or place to the next. I also drink chamomile tea in the morning and in the evening. Keeps my blood pressure lower!

Reading books, knitting or just putting my phone in the other room, so I can be more present without the distractions.

When it comes to self-care, I try to make it a daily priority, even if it's only 30 minutes of something that's just for me. As a mommy, educator and caretaker, most of my day is spent worrying about other people, so self-care to me just means prioritizing my own needs. That might be having a delicious lunch (that I can enjoy on my own without my son asking for some), stealing an hour of time after school (before jumping into mom duties) to talk a walk, shop, or meet with a friend instead of always using it for grocery shopping or errands. When my son was still in daycare, this was DEFINITELY a common practice I didn't feel bad for. Grace for self, that's my self care.

Write it down get it out! mental self care means the most to me, WE take in so much from our students, family and friends. Often there's no space to voice your feelings. Journaling is my safe haven for self care!

I make sure that I limit the time I work on anything school related at home. I give myself lots of “me time” to ensure work-life balance because this is an area that I have struggled with in the past. I enjoy binging tv shows or movies, time with my family, reading fantasy and sci-fi, or playing logic game apps.

Crossword puzzles calm my mind and help me ease into the day. I enjoy doing The NY Times crossword every morning with a cup of coffee.

Be still, stay calm and reflect on all of the positivity and goodness in your life today! I enjoy soothing music.

Amid any chaos or adversities that come your way, let's draw from our inner peace!

Self care for me is turning on music and cleaning. I also love popping stove top popcorn with my children and watching a movie. Family time is the best time!

My way of taking care of myself is meditating, practicing yoga, walking and breathing fresh air, disconnecting when necessary, and taking breaks for my body and mind.

I enjoy playing a game on my tablet, reading, drinking tea or iced coffee and relaxing on my couch. Spending time with my family recharges my batteries!

Listening to audible books is a great way to slow down my mind, which is always going. I go for a walk or just spend time lying down whenever I can. It helps to just close myself off and think of the blessing of a time to rest. Going to a spa for my nails and a pedicure is another love for me.

# data[].attributes.body
For self-care I like to spend time in nature. Walking in the woods, going out on the water or hiking.

My frugal self-care is trying new teas and savoring the small moment. Having a Coca-Cola is my other small moment that I take to myself. My less than frugal ways are going to the beach

or spending an unreasonable amount of money on myself. Lol. You see me roll up in a new car, just know I deserved it. 😆

1st order of business, Sigma's do it better haha. For me self care looks like healthy work life balance & boundaries. I take myself on solo dates regularly so I don't lose myself trying to show up for everyone else. I also work out 3 days a week which has been a game changer.

# data[].attributes.body
I take self care very serious. Along the way I have made some changes to focus on my self care. I enjoy doing yoga, working out, going on hikes, praying, getting massages and taking care of my skin. I love to listen to my favorite music and put on a face or hair mask. I enjoy taking naps and hot baths. These are some of the things I like to do to relax and take care of Me!

To relax, we often think of our dream of retirement one day.... maybe... ;)

There are several things that I do to relax...Reading, movies, listening to music. To fully relax...I like to submerge in some type of art project/D.I.Y., anything in nature, museum, theater

Finding time for myself has been challenging lately, but I prioritize meditation and breathing exercises before bed. Treating myself to a fancy coffee once in a while makes my day better. I also practice self-care by surrounding myself with positive people because energy is contagious! On weekends, I sometimes go hiking and trampolining with my kids, and I play soccer or kickball in local leagues seasonally.
