September is the ideal time to prioritize “me time” and practice self-care, as it is National Self-Care Awareness Month. While it is easy to get caught up in the control of others, it is essential for your mental health to practice self-care. Self-care is often described as taking a series of actions to improve physical, mental and emotional well-being. It promotes a healthy relationship with yourself and allows you to benefit from your physical, mental and emotional health.
When you take care of yourself, it is much easier to care for others. Therefore, self-care helps you to develop a positive mindset that will result in good feelings and emotions for those around you. If you take the time to recharge, you will improve your outlook on yourself and others and significantly reduce unhealthy stress levels. The World Federation for Self-Care (GSCF) encourages everyone to participate in order to ensure the well-being of individuals and communities around the world.
