Valentine’s day is coming up and as we know, this year is a little different. You’ve spent years looking after others around you, but this year especially, don’t forget how important self-care is too! Here are 10 Tips on how to Love Yourself... Pop on a podcast or the radio – podcasts and radio segments are funny, insightful and thought-provoking and great to listen to when you walk, cook or clean. Listening to others when we’re feeling lonely can help keep us company during lockdown. You can find loads of podcasts on your smartphone and online. Get the creative juices flowing – painting, sculpting and colouring with bright colours and interesting textures has lots of psychological benefits to help take you to a happy place, whilst reducing stress and anxiety at the same time. Turn up the music and dance like nobody’s watching! Skip the diets and eat your greens – eat your fruit and veggies, drink plenty of water and have that slice of cake! Balance is the key to a happy and healthy lifestyle.
Stop comparing yourself to others – you are you, and you are lovely! These boots are made for walking – get those wellies on and get outside, smell the fresh air and enjoy the nature around us, even if it’s a few laps of your garden. Do that Facetime or phone a friend - hop in the shower, brush your hair and put on something nice to have a catch up with friends and family, because having a chit chat really it the best therapy. Read a book – escape from reality inside a brilliant book, giving yourself time away from your screens. Ask for help – you’re doing a brilliant job so far, but it’s ok to ask others for help when you need it. You can find the details for charities who are there to help you in the back of this directory. Treat yourself – whether it’s a candle-lit bath, your favourite takeaway or binging a funny series, whatever makes you happy, do it; because you deserve it!
