Elevating your self-care is essential for maintaining overall well-being

 








Elevating your self-care is essential for maintaining overall well-being, reducing stress, and improving your quality of life. Here are some tips to help you take your self-care practices to the next level:

  1. Prioritize Self-Care: Make self-care a priority in your daily or weekly routine. Schedule time for self-care activities and treat them as non-negotiable appointments with yourself.

  2. Practice Mindfulness: Engage in mindfulness activities such as meditation, deep breathing, or yoga to help calm your mind and reduce stress. Mindfulness can improve your ability to handle challenges and stay present in the moment.

  3. Nurture Your Body: Pay attention to your physical health by eating nutritious foods, staying hydrated, and engaging in regular exercise. Proper nutrition and physical activity contribute to increased energy levels and a positive mood.


Nourish Your Body Inside and Out
Treat yourself to a delicious and nutritious meal, whether home-cooked or delivered by your favorite local take-out spot. Try adding a supplement to your regimen to meet your daily requirements of essential nutrients and boost your radiance from within. 



Now sit back, relax, and enjoy—you deserve it!

  1. Get Quality Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night. Establish a consistent sleep schedule and create a relaxing bedtime routine to improve sleep quality and overall well-being.

  2. Disconnect from Technology: Take breaks from electronic devices and social media. Unplugging from technology can help reduce stress and improve your mental clarity.

  3. Engage in Hobbies: Make time for activities you enjoy, whether it's reading, painting, gardening, or any other hobby that brings you joy and relaxation.

  4. Set Boundaries: Learn to say no when you feel overwhelmed or stretched thin. Setting boundaries with others allows you to protect your time and prioritize self-care.


Enhance Your Bath or Shower 
Take your bath to the next level with foaming bubbles or a jojoba oil-infused bath oil with a revitalizing herbal scent. If a shower is more of your vibe, try adding a beautifully scented shower steamer to help you steam and de-stress.

  1. Pamper Yourself: Treat yourself to small luxuries or pampering sessions, such as a spa day, a massage, or a relaxing bath with essential oils.

  2. Practice Gratitude: Cultivate a gratitude practice by regularly reflecting on the positive aspects of your life. Gratitude can shift your focus to the positive and improve your overall outlook.

  3. Connect with Others: Spend time with loved ones and cultivate meaningful relationships. Social connections are essential for emotional well-being.

  4. Explore Nature: Spend time outdoors and connect with nature. Nature walks, hikes, or simply sitting in a park can help reduce stress and increase feelings of tranquility.

  5. Learn and Grow: Engage in personal development activities, such as reading self-help books, attending workshops, or taking up a new skill or hobby.

  6. Seek Professional Help: If you're struggling with emotional or mental challenges, don't hesitate to seek support from a therapist or counselor. Taking care of your mental health is an important aspect of self-care.

Remember that self-care is not selfish; it's essential for maintaining balance and well-being in all aspects of your life. Choose activities that resonate with you and make a conscious effort to incorporate them into your daily or weekly routine. Small, consistent steps can lead to significant improvements in your self-care journey.

THE # 1 THING TO CONSIDER IN FASHION

Underwear that Fits Correctly ARTICLE: https://www.notdressedaslamb.com/2017/03/the-number-1-trick-that-makes-all-your-clothes-look-good.html There is one very easy trick to making all your clothes look good (even when you’re wearing your own 34-year-old Duran Duran t-shirt – the oldest piece of clothing I own by a very, very long way). That number 1 trick? Get your underwear right. Oh, I can’t tell you how many years I spent wearing the wrong kind of underwear. The wrong size bra, ill-fitting knickers, the wrong  shape  bras… I’ve learnt a new trick just recently – but first, that t-shirt! My original Duran Duran Seven and the Ragged Tiger tour t-shirt is mine –  from 1983 . I cannot tell you how happy I am to be wearing my most treasured t-shirt and oldest item in my wardrobe, an item I thought until recently was most probably lost. I knew I hadn’t deliberately got rid of it, I just knew I’d put it somewhere ‘safe’ (that old chestnut!) and I’d been looking for it for years.

Vitamins Needed for Healthy Skin

Research suggests that some vitamins might play a key role in skin health. In many cases, these vitamins are most effective when a person applies them directly to the skin.

Vitamin A Many multivitamins contain 100 percent or more of the recommended daily intake of  vitamin A . Other  good sources of vitamin A  include carrots, dark leafy green vegetables,  sweet potatoes , and  eggs . Retinoids, including retinol, tretinoin, isotretinoin, and similar chemicals, are manufactured forms of vitamin A. B-complex vitamins Several  B-complex vitamins  may improve skin health. The water-soluble vitamins are readily available as supplements, including as supplements that include all 12 B-complex vitamins. Research into the role of vitamin B-complex supplements is promising, though inconclusive. A  2018 study  found that vitam
