Defining the Selfless Act of Selfcare
The solution is found in the definition, notion, and action of self care. Let’s first look at how to define this notion of self care. In its most basic form it means care of the self or oneself and or the needs of the self. This is the most broad and wide net to use to define something which can include anything that allows for you to ensure you are caring for yourself and your needs. One could have many questions surrounding this notion. A good place to start is to look at self care on a more specific level and the various aspects of this discussion. We have defined it in a broad sense and terms, but now lets define it in a more practical sense and matter and applicable to each of us.
Yes, self care is caring for you and your needs. But what does that mean? What does that look like? How does one go about doing that? This may be a bit of a challenge for some of you because this answer is a yes/no type answer. What I mean is I can define and show you what it is and how to do self care. But I can’t tell you how to do your own selfcare. Hold on before you get totally annoyed by that. Each and every one of us is an individual with individual likes, needs, interests, and personalities. So self care is going to look and vary from person to person. What is self care for some isn’t other ideas of self care and vice versa. We are all unique and different individuals so what we see and do for self care is going to be different and unique to each and every one of us. The point is that Self Care is essential and we each need to develop habits of doing self care work for each of us and in each of our lives for taking time to do self care in our lives for ourselves and our loved ones.
