If you think about it, what does it really take to get you grounded and clear your mind? Self-care is responsible for a lot of things in your life. If you don’t take care of you first, how can you function properly? Even if it’s for 10 minutes, that’s 10 minutes less of enduring chaos in your life.
If you’re home, go to that favorite spot. Left-side of the couch, right-side of the couch, in your bed, or that favorite comfy chair. Play a game on your phone, yes on your phone. Don’t interact with anyone just scroll through Pinterest, play WordChums, watch funny videos. Color, read a chapter in your book or journal your thoughts for those 10 minutes. Do whatever it takes for those 10 minutes to get you right. Do not feel guilty, it’s only 10 minutes. You are special and important. This is your daily reminder to not forget it.
