Self-care is such a big topic for discussion as of late.  I sat down and listed ways that I try to care of myself.  My list isn't too creative, but these things do help me from day to day.

Self-care is defined as any activity we do deliberately in order to take care of our mental, emotional and physical health.

Here are some of mine:

•  put on lip colors.  They are fun and make me smile.
• petting and taking care of my animals.  Even taking Buster on short car rides.
• reading, while taking long baths
• writing and organizing my thoughts.  Planning things and getting excited about them.
• I've stopped using the computer during my lunch break. 

What do you do for self-care?
