How do you make time for self-care?

Self Care… it feels like such a funny thing. To care for ones self. I feel that as a mother we tend to put everyone else’s needs ahead of our own. And if we choose to put ourselves first we are seen and told that we are selfish or unmotherly. But what’s more motherly than teaching others how to put boundaries and to take care of the only person who will always be there for you? Yourself.
I like to have slow evenings. Especially when it’s cold and rainy. Play games, drink warm drinks, long hot baths, and skin care routines.
My form of self-care is slowing down.
Everyday we go, go, go. We have to. There is so much to do. But some days I just have to stop.
Stop going. Say no. Choose to stay put and slow down.
