Twelve days ago, I embarked on a journey that I hoped challenged me to live my best balanced life and right now, I can tell you that this was one of the best things I could’ve done for myself. Since beginning the challenge, I have been more aware of my mental, physical and spiritual health needs each and every day. I am providing much needed nourishment to all aspects of my life and it feels BEYOND AMAZING!
I promote, advocate and encourage others to live their best lives on a daily basis through my counseling, coaching and consulting practice (Modus Life, LLC), but I know I am not exempt from doing the same in my own life. Follow my blog as I continue to post my daily activities.
The Challenge:
For the month of April, I vowed to complete a different self-care activity each day regardless of how I felt. I would not allow myself to use any excuse to get out of completing the challenge. So far, this promise to myself has proven to be the motivation that I needed on the days that I was tried or when it was getting late in the evening. There was no out. As long as it was before midnight I still had time to do what I set out to achieve for the day. This mindset has proven to be extremely effective in other areas of my life as well.
Lessons Learned Thus Far:
- Don’t allow your goals to be excused by excuses
- Plan and Do….Regardless
- Self-care truly is the best care
- Wellness is priceless
I encourage you to join me in the #30dayselfcarechallege. Start today and plan for one day at a time. Then, keep it going. Just get started! I’ll see you all tomorrow with a new challenge activity.
Love the mantra’s good stuff!!
