Hello all
Its September, the year is flying by!
September is known as self care awareness month ( as i recently discovered), its a time to remind us that taking care of ourselves can be so important. we sometimes neglect our self care because we are busy, or struggling.
So i am going to post 30 daily things to do below, for yourself! take time out of your day to look after you, as you are the most important!
Just want to clarify that this thread was inspired by a 30 days if self care post I came across on a social media platform
so here it is in the spoiler
