Introducing a New Series for October

This Month I’ve decided to focus on some self-care. With busy holidays right around the corner, let’s take some time this month to rest and recharge so we can better serve others. Because, if you’re like me, you tend to run around taking care of things without taking any time for yourself.

The series will include ideas for taking time for yourself and tools to take better care of yourself. Throughout the month, I’ll have posts corresponding to ideas for resting and rejuvenating.

Let’s make a little time every day to take care of ourselves and a little more time weekly.

Here’s a list of ideas to get you started:

Take a Walk
Read your favorite book/magazine/blog
Fix your favorite coffee or tea
Pamper yourself {Paint your nails, facial, etc.}
Make a plan for the week
Workout plan
Plan a healthy meal for each day
Wear your favorite outfit that makes you feel wonderful
Take a bubble bath
Write in your journal – or start one
Watch your favorite movie
Do an art/craft project that you enjoy
Take a nap
Go to bed early
Sleep in
Light your favorite candle
Have a good laugh
Bake your favorite dessert
Spend time in God’s word
Learn something new
Watch a sunrise or sunset

As you can see, the list is a mix of healthy habits, rest, and a little pampering. The main goal is to slow down a little so we have time to re-charge.

How are you going to rest and re-charge this month? Let me know in the comments!
