“Self-care is really about taking care of you and focusing on feeling good about yourself – mind and body.”
-Franchesca Ramsey
B. Reading Is Self-Care:
Question: How many books have you read during the quarantine?
I haven’t read any. Zero. Zilch. Nada.
And that my friends is a problem!
Reading is ULTIMATE self-care for me! When I read for pleasure I am engrossed in the present. I am focused in the moment because I have shut everything else out. It’s ME time!!
This sudden realization means that I am attacking anxiety more intentionally and taking back my peace and power!!
“There’s so much more to a book than just the reading.”
–Maurice Sendak
C. Music Is Self-Care:
Reminder: I am Victorious!
Although I haven’t been reading during the quarantine, I have not gone a single day without listening to music. Music soothes my soul, recharges my energy, and brings me joy. I began the year with my Victory Playlist because Victory is my word for 2020. I have created more playlists in the last 3 months that I usually create in a year.
“I think music in itself is healing. It’s an explosive expression of humanity. It’s something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we’re from, everyone loves music.”
–Billy Joel
