Welcome to our Day 2 of our "10 days of self-care" & thank you for putting you first & joining us.

Welcome to our "10 days of self-care" & thank you for putting you first & joining us. We recently told you about our 10 days of self-care, which we are now starting with Day 1, running up to (and including) Day 10 which will be Friday 6th January 2023.

Are you feeling burnt out this festive season? Exit the busy of Christmas & welcome in the calm with our 10 days of self-care.⁠⁠ Starting Wednesday 28th December & running through up to (& including) Friday 6th January 2023, mark your calendars today & be sure to set that important "me time" aside.⁠

Stress can be different for each person. What makes you stressed might not necessarily make the person next to you stressed the same way. For me, I have always been a bit of a stress head - sorry Husband! I often wonder whether it’s because of living with a chronic illness and the stress it creates physically which over spills into the mind.

Podcasts are undoubtably a brilliant form of self care. Putting those headphones in and escaping from the outside world, you can curate what you need in that moment.

National Relaxation Day aims to promote stress relief through practicing relaxation techniques. This is turn can lead to being able to develop a calmer & clearer sense of mind, which can help us hugely in our lives, especially when dealing with chronic illness. Like myself, I'm sure there are times where you find relaxation impossible and wonder how actually is it even possible the way you are feeling?! Take it from a professional over thinker, it's okay if it doesn't come easy & it's not something to beat yourself up over.
