SCA: The Power of Self-Care

by ASilentObserver

2 days ago

...See more Hello Community, 7Cups is a community where you can find everyone advocating for self-care. Last week, we discussed the power of self-care in the Positivity Corner group chat and all participants shared their insights, encouragement, and support to promote the practice of self-care. This month we are celebrating the awareness of self-care [https://www.7cups.com/forum/projectsandevents/General_2421/SeptemberisSelfCareAwarenessMonthEventsHelpWanted_336603/] and gratitude. [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/GroupSupportCommunityEvents_2295/2024GratitudeWeekw7Cups_336990/] But, something that often comes up is that self-care is often overlooked in the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. It is a significant aspect of overall well-being. Many think and there is a misconception that it is about selfishness or indulgence. But, that is untrue. It is more about recognizing the importance of taking care of oneself to lead a more fulfilling and balanced life. We live in times that often emphasize productivity, goals, and success. But, we also need to understand that taking care of ourselves and each other is the way to live a well-lived life. So as you start your day to begin your journey of productivity and meeting goals, and other needs, do take a moment to do two steps of reflection and ask yourself a question: “What can I do to take care of myself today?” Once you answered the first question, the second question to reflect on, “What can you do to take care of others around you?” Responding to these questions can help you unlock the awareness of yourself and how self-care is beneficial for you. So, what does self-care mean to you? How do you practice it Let's discuss and feel free to share your thoughts and experiences on self-care.

...See more Hey hey lovely people coming across, I hope you're doing well. 💛 Came across a really cool something recently and it poked my braincells a little so here I am, sharing with you too! Sharing is caring, right-oo?!🥰 "Life is too short to be scared of being a human" It is true! I feel, the bottomline for the majority of our struggles and worries is being afraid to be a human. (Uber amazing if you think that's not the case for you, how does it feel to be the Universe's favorite lol!🥰) Okay, so what could go wrong, if we aren't being human? We could be lacking perfection. We could be mediocre at something. We could be feeling broken, hurt, lost, confused, stuck, angry, monotonous, frustrated, disappointed and every x emotion you can think of! But that's the thing, being human is being imperfect. Being human is not being the best always or at everything. Being human is having emotions. Having emotions doesn't make you a bad person ever. You're hurting and there's a lot of sadness engulfing you, but that's the most human thing about you, that you feel hurt, that you feel sadness, that you *feel*. And the bravest thing? You allow yourself to feel. You allow yourself to be a human. I don't think there's anything more validating than to be a human, and to remind yourself often that you are, and you're worthy, and you're allowed to be just *you*. Next time you miss out on nailing something, maybe take a moment to acknowledge that it's okay to miss out, you're still nailing at being a human, and it does count, even if you aren't able to see/ acknowledge it at the time! 💛 Being a human isn't a limitation, it's a possibility, its an opportunity to try each time afresh at being human. I feel, *human* is like the coolest "rookie" tag lol, made mistakes? It's okay, you tried, that counts, you learned something, that counts, wanna make it count more? Give it another shot keeping the learning in mind. You're going to have all kinds of days, feel all kinds of emotions, and maybe sometimes no emotions when it gets too overwhelming, even then, especially then, acknowledge the human in you, allow the human in you, validate the human in you, appreciate the human in you! 💛 The essence of your "being" isn't in what you do, the essence of your being is *you*. Towards embracing, acknowledging, accepting, valuing and loving the human in us! 💛
