Healthfully Selfish

Healthfully Selfish: That’s not a type-o and we’re not just talking bubble baths and mani-pedis. Tune in and discover what it is, and what it isn’t and why being Healthfully Selfish is the best gift you can give to those you love. YOU CAN DO THIS! What is something you love to do that you’ve lost sight of? Something that feeds your soul. Make a list. (Yes, right now. Write them down.) Got your answer to ? Good. Now go do it. Practice breathing. Remember, deep, from the belly. Not just the chest. Inhale then exhale longer than your inhale (try counting it out. Or better yet, choose two words that remind you of calm and peace. Use the shorter word for your inhale and longer one for your exhale.) Practice your breathing by blowing bubbles. Inhale, then exhale slow and controlled. See how many bubbles you can blow. More hugs! (With safe and approved partners. Pets included!) Take a nap. Do a quick Google search and find passages of Scripture that reference the importance of taking care of yourself. There are more than you think! RESOURCES: YOU CAN READ THIS! The two links above are for personal prayer and/or personal mantra relaxation. They will guide you through progressive relaxation. One guides you using prayer, the other simply your own personal mantra. In this episode, we talked about the link between poor quality of sleep and several diseases. Here is a great article that maps that out well. (If you are in need of help with your sleep hygiene, please contact us via private message and we will get you linked with a counselor who specializes in Brain Restorative Sleep.) In this book, you’ll find a way to get the most out of your morning (and she uses that term loosely) routine. This one is a ‘zero-excuse’ routine. Everyone has 3 minutes. Yes, even you. It’s pretty obvious why we chose this article. So…what does ‘little you’ reeeally need?
