Prioritize your mental health. 

Take it as seriously as your physical health. 

Because your mental health can impact your physical health in several ways. 

Self-care is an important part of mental health.

Too many of us self-sabotage instead of practicing self-care.

Here are a few ways that I focus on self-care:

eating nutritious food

exercise

taking one day at a time

journaling 

focusing on gratitude 

making time for hobbies

What I need to work on:

hydration

sleep

setting boundaries

not procrastinating

Self-care is not selfish.

Self-care is important for a healthy, satisfying, fulfilling life.
