What is Self-Care?

Self-care can be defined as the practice of taking action to improve both your physical and mental health. When it comes to your mental health, self-care can help you manage stress, lower your risk of illness, and increase your energy. Even small acts of self-care in your daily life can have a big impact.

Self-care can be any activity that promotes well-being. It is essentially the things we do to take care of ourselves. Self-care can be taking care of your basic needs, such as sleeping and eating healthy. It can also be activities, such as listening to music or watching a movie. Self-care looks different for everyone. The important part is doing activities that benefit your mental and physical well-being.
