"Care for yourself"

"Care for yourself"

Poor self-esteem can sometimes leave you feeling like you don’t deserve care and consideration.

  • Work on reminding yourself that you need care and look for things that you can do to show kindness to yourself, no matter how small they may be.
  • Spend some time doing something that you enjoy. Give yourself moments of rest and relaxation.

Investing in your own care and comfort isn’t an indulgence or reward you have to earn—it’s absolutely vital to both your physical and mental health.
