The Year of Self-Care (Inner Fitness)
HEALTH & WELLNESS CORNER
By Dr. Tiffany Taft
It is ever more important that we begin to listen to the clues that our bodies give and no longer push ourselves to the point of exhaustion. How many times have you said, just one more thing and I am going to shut it down? When was the last time you did something JUST FOR YOU? It is still early in the year, so start TODAY, and make you a priority. What are the things that you love most to do but have not made time to do in a very long time? What are some of the little ways your body and mind have told you it is time to slow down recharge, say no, or just move on? I am no different. I have not always been MINDFUL of ME. Here are a few ways that you too can make time for YOU:
1. Clue in – Listen to your body
2. Learn to say NO – Set Boundaries
3. Delegate, delegate, delegate – You don’t have to do everything
4. Spend time doing things that you love – Spending time with family, a movie, a great meal, be happy.
5. Find your tribe – Your tribe is your Vibe. They will support you, encourage you, and keep you honest at the same time.
6. Get regular Massages – Receiving massages on a regular basis helps you decompress and reset.
7. Put yourself on the calendar – Are you first, last, or no spot at all? Update that calendar and make sure you are on it.
Be Well!
