Whether you’re a business owner or work a 9-to-5, we can all agree that keeping up with the hamster wheel form of living, is not the ideal. But for most of us, it usually takes a wake-up call to notice the toll this kind of lifestyle can have on our lives. Because too often, self-care is the last thing on our super-sized to-do list. And, because we’re all guilty as charged, keep reading for the one reason NOT to neglect self-care.
As a mom, a strategic communication entrepreneur, and a sales and marketing manager my calendar is jam-packed. From preparing for meetings, writing articles, and client calls, emails, and more, I get emotionally depleted, which can leave me feeling uninspired and stuck in a creative rut. But more importantly, I’ve realized that when you neglect self-care, you send the message to others you don’t know your worth.
So choose to maintain a healthy relationship with self, while reminding others that you and your needs are a priority too. Don’t be so busy being productive that you forget to take care of yourself. Self-care is important. Let me correct that—self-care is crucial to your emotional, mental and physical well-being.
Contrary to common beliefs, being a workaholic is not a virtue. And take it from me, stress and exhaustion will make you feel less productive. When your strength and vitality are not maintained, you’ll be left in a state of fatigue, which can compromise your decision-making, as well as lead to all sorts of health problems: including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and even heart disease.
You are the most important person you know, so make time for yourself in order to help maintain your strength, stamina, and well-being. Find simple ways to commit to a bit of self-love. Whether it is taking an hour or two to disconnect from your gadgets to do a simple facial, journaling, or to take a short walk, remember self-care isn’t a one-time deal. Because you can’t make withdrawals if you don’t make regular deposits.
