About this event
Self-care is vital. Have you ever really thought about the safety instructions given by airlines before you fly? “In the event of an emergency you are to secure your oxygen mask before assisting those around you?” It’s quite simple: You must make sure that you are able to be of assistance by taking care of yourself first! Self-care matters because we cannot pour from an empty cup and we teach people how to treat us by how we treat ourselves.
8 common components of self-care:
1. Knowledge & health literacy
2. Mental well-being
3. Physical activity
4. Healthy eating
5. Risk Avoidance
6. Good hygiene
7. Rational use of products and services 8. Rest
Of these components self-care can be most rewarding when viewing from the lens of what is important to you and what is showing up in your life! Knowing who you are and what is important to you is a trust builder, time saver, and a communication builder.
