Update! Think I will let this be it for now :)

Quick portrait sketch I started inbetween work.

wanted to try something green and try out a new painting technique :)

Thanks to everyone who has followed this month in selfcare project! I still have a few self care ideas left, that I will post sporadically over the next weeks.  I hope you’ve all enjoyed it so far and could take away some basic strategies for your own selfcare :)

Todays Self Care idea: Try a new recipe, e.g. with ingredients that you have never eaten or a new cuisine

Todays Self Care idea: Write a story about the funniest thing that ever happened to you. If you want, share it with a friend.

Todays Self Care idea: What do your friends like about you? Ask 3 friends of yours what they appreciate about you. Write down the answers and continue adding uplifting statements in the future.

Todays Self Care idea: Take care of a plant. Get a potted plant to take care of regularly or work in a garden.

Inhale for 6 seconds - hold your breath for 6 seconds – exhale for 6 seconds. Repeat the exercise for 2 minutes.

Todays Self Care idea: Ask someone for help with a current problem. New angles or a helping hand can make things a lot easier.

Todays Self Care idea: Time for a break. Plan a  spa day for yourself, a trip or small vacation that you always wanted to do.

Todays Self Care idea: Invite a friend to talk about the positive things in your life right now. Also, ask how your friend is doing.

Todays Self Care idea: Plan a small gesture for a loved one, like a homemade surprise or something for their next birthday.

Todays Self Care idea: Time management is important to prevent stress. If you’re not already doing it, try to structure your upcoming week, so you know what tasks to do and plan enough free time for yourself 

Todays Self Care idea: It’s time to leave your comfort zone. Challenge yourself, e.g. with learning a new instrument or a book unlike your typical reading interests.

Todays Self Care idea: Go for a stroll or play with a pet. If you don‘t have one of your own ask a friend or at the local shelter.

Todays Self Care idea: Donate or sell something that you have long wanted to get rid of or that you no longer need.
