An Introduction to Emotional Self-Care
Emotional Self-care has many facets to it, but primarily it is your relationship to self and others. It is about how you give and receive love, kindness and compassion. Not only is it about self-affirmation that you are enough, it is also about learning to let go of things that do not give you peace of mind.
Some activities to help you with your Emotional Self-care journey:
- Journaling: can help to organise your thoughts, and articulate things in a way that can help you to understand yourself better. Tip: our journal prompt cards and journal is perfect for self-development and better understanding of yourself
- Re-connecting with a friend: healthy relationships are key to emotional self-care, and this connection with your friend can help you through times good or bad.
- Going for a walk: like journaling, this can help you to organise your thoughts, and also help you to gain a relationship between you and nature.
- Letting Go: realising what you can and can’t control is key to maintaining good emotional health, and helps you to maintain relationships between you and others.
The Emotional Self-care Journey can be quite an adventure as you discover more about yourself and those around you.
