7 Must-Read Self-Care Tips

 

Hey you! Let’s put down the to-do lists, goals and endless chatter about hustling for a minute, take a step back and check-in with yourself.

When was the last time you took a day to just relax and recuperate?

 

This time of year it is so easy for us to add a million things to our schedule in the name of self-improvement, but have you actually stopped to think about one of the most important things?

 

REST

 

If you don’t take care of yourself, take time for rest, relaxation and healing, you will eventually be so burnt out and depleted that you’ll crash and burn.

 

How about instead of adding more things to our schedule, we focus on what our body really needs for us to function at an optimal level.

 

Here at Haven, we have decided to put a twist on the traditional self-care tips. Ours will be focused on restorative activities that you are able to do from the comfort of your own bed.
