No matter what is going on in our lives, we should always find time to do the things that make us happy to be who we are. Self care isn

Baths when my chair lift is working
Drinking water or going by the lake.. or taking a walk so calming😊
Changing my hairstyle! I like to experiment with color A LOT
Og Gosh, I have so many. I love taking a candle light bath with some celtic music. Watching my favorite movie with tea under a heavy blanket. Playing video games, going outside hiking, swimming ect. I read, write, sketch. Just really depends what I feel like that day.
my fav self care activity (and usual my go to) would probably be watercoloring and listening to music
@brightbubbles88
I've tried watercoloring based on Youtube tutorials but it is harder than it looks! I know I'm using too much water because my paper always ends up curling.
@leesemarie i feel that aha-the youtube tutorials definetely makes watercolouring seem easier than it is! most of the time i just end up mixing colours and water together and wait to see what turns out lol :)
Playing Animal Crossing!!! Does anyone else here play it too? :P
Drinking black tea with lemon and honey
I love to put on some music and organizing my closet or something. It feels like I have control over things and helps organize my mind aswell.
Music always helps me, either to feel more calm, happy or sad.
I also like talking to an old friend, it's exciting. Or somehow expressing myself creatively.
So far bubble baths, gardening or just sitting outside, and talking to people in a high trust environment. I used to think I was an introvert, now I'm wondering if I'm just a traumatized extrovert who's scared to talk to most people. Because if I can get up a good rapport with someone, and really trust them, I think I can talk for a long time with them without getting tired at all. The exhausting part of talking to someone is the trust dance. What do they mean when they say that, what's safe to say here, what are the rules. If I don't know the rules it stresses me out. With my closer friends, I take them as they are and they take me as I am and if either of us says something hinky we know how to discuss it gently without upsetting anybody, even my hypersensitive self. 😛 I also enjoy learning to make things and other practical skills because it raises my confidence to know I'm capable of many things.
Other self care activities I would like to get more into are going for walks, listening to music in a more organized way (I have no music library oops), following a more serene before bed schedule and eating more healthily.
