Self-care looks different to each of us, but taking time to care for yourself will go a long way toward improving your mental health. It builds confidence, relieves stress, and lays a foundation for wellness. International Self-Care Day serves as a reminder to raise awareness about the importance of self-care, promote it within our communities, and, most importantly, take good care of ourselves. While it’s important to learn more about and prioritize our self-care every single day, it’s helpful to have somewhere to start. Swipe through our guide for some examples of how you can practice honouring and caring for yourself. 💖 #SelfCareDay #SelfCareTips #Wellness #MentalHealth #SelfLove
