treat yourself today.
You're probably busy. Or maybe you think it's not your place to take time out of your day to do something for yourself. But I'm here to tell you that's not true. You need to treat yourself! And even if you don't feel like it right now, taking some time for yourself will benefit both your mental health and productivity levels in the long run
The Importance Of Treating Yourself.
The importance of self care is something that has been gaining momentum, and for good reason: it's not only good for your mental health, but also your productivity. Self care can help you be more productive at work by being less stressed out and more present, which leads to better work performance. When you’re more present in the moment while working, you get things done faster and with fewer mistakes. You’ll also be able to focus on what’s important in each task at hand instead of worrying about other things like how long it will take or if your boss will notice if you stay late tonight.
When we take time for ourselves as individuals (whether that means going on a trip or just spending an afternoon watching Netflix), our relationships are enhanced as well because we bring back new perspectives that others may not have considered before. We become more open-minded people who aren't afraid to share their thoughts with others because they know they have their own lives outside of work too! This can lead others around them down paths they never thought possible before meeting me :)
Treating yourself can be viewed as selfish.
Finding ways to treat yourself is a great way to take care of your body, mind and spirit, but it can also be seen as selfish. This isn't true at all: treating yourself is not selfish! It's about taking time for yourself and nurturing your own needs.
When you're feeling stressed or overwhelmed by life's demands, treating yourself will help you deal with these feelings in a positive way and make room in your life for the things that matter most to you. Whether this means spending more time with friends or getting enough sleep each night, there are lots of different ways that treating yourself can boost happiness levels while giving you energy to go out into the world again.
Taking time to yourself should be a top priority.
You are important. You deserve to be treated as such. And if you don’t treat yourself, who will?
Taking time for yourself is not only a necessity but also an act of self-love. It's essential that we take care of ourselves before we can give care and attention to others—and this is especially true when it comes to the people closest to us in our lives, who rely on us most. If there's one thing I've learned from being both a professional caregiver and a mother, it's that relationships are based on balance: giving and receiving are equally necessary if they're going to work well together! So whether or not you have kids or other loved ones depending on your affectionate attention (or even just some friends who need an ear), stop putting yourself last—because there will always be more work piling up around you than there is time left at night before bedtime rolls around again tomorrow morning."
You can enjoy indulgence while still being productive.
You can still be productive while indulging.
Example: Taking a few minutes to relax or read a book before heading back to work is an example of something that will improve your mental health and productivity.
Tip: Make sure to get up from your desk every hour for 5-10 minutes and take a walk around the office or outside, but make sure you're still checking in with coworkers. This will help keep them from feeling like they have to worry about what you're doing all day long!
You need to treat yourself to stay sane.
When it comes to treating yourself, don't just assume that you deserve to do things for yourself. Instead, think about what you'd like and then go after it! If your idea of a good time is going shopping at the mall with a friend or getting out the paintbrushes for a day of painting your living room walls—do those things!
Treating yourself does not have to be expensive or elaborate. It can be something as simple as taking time out of your schedule each day in order to relax by reading a book on the couch or doing yoga in front of the TV (I recommend Netflix's "Instant Pot Cookbook" for some great cooking inspiration).
"You" time is important for your relationships.
The people in your life need your undivided attention, and so do you. You can't be there for them if you don't take care of yourself first. It might feel selfish, but it's essential to good relationships—and even better friendships.
You deserve a break from being the go-to person who listens and cares, takes on more than their fair share of tasks, never says no, and is always available when anyone needs anything. It's okay to say no sometimes."
Indulging in self care isn't just good for you, it's good for others, too.
When you treat yourself well, it's not just good for you—it's good for everyone around you. When you are relaxed and happy, so is everyone around you. When you take time out of your busy schedule to go on a date with yourself or read a book (or both), everyone benefits.
When we stop taking care of ourselves and start focusing solely on caring for others, our relationships suffer because we’re not giving them the attention they need. We become irritable and hard to be around when all we do is think about other people. We expect others to know what makes us happy without ever checking in with them first because we don't want them thinking that what makes us happy isn't important enough for them to spend any time thinking about it themselves! That could never happen though...right?
Well it does happen more often than many would like to admit but luckily there are ways to avoid these types of situations from occurring again in the future: self-care!
It can be hard work to treat yourself sometimes.
Treating yourself can be hard work.
Treating yourself doesn’t always come naturally, and sometimes you have to push yourself to do it. Maybe you need a reminder from a loved one or friend. Or maybe you just have to set aside some time in your schedule for self-care. Either way, treating yourself can take more effort than most people think about when they think about treating themselves.
