Self-Care: Prioritising Your Wellbeing

By prioritising the following areas and taking care of yourself, you can proactively maintain your wellbeing, feel good, and lead a healthier, happier life.​​

Physical Health & Wellbeing

Keeping your body healthy is crucial because it helps you stay focused, energetic and positive. It's the key to unlocking your potential and living your best life.

​

  • ​Nutrition: Eat a balanced diet with a mix of fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains to get the nutrients you need for energy and overall health.

​

  • ​Exercise: Regular physical activities like walking, lifting weights, and stretching can strengthen your heart and muscles and lift your mood.

​

  • ​Sleep: Get enough sleep (usually 7-9 hours per night for grown-ups) to help you think well, control your feelings, stay healthy, and feel good overall.

​

  • ​Hydration: Drink enough water throughout the day to stay properly hydrated and support various bodily functions and overall health. Also have drinks that include electrolytes to replace the important minerals that we sweat out during exercise.

Mental & Emotional Wellbeing

Taking care of your mental and emotional health is essential for building resilience and coping with life's challenges.

​

  • ​Stress Relief: Try activities like meditation, slow breathing, or yoga to relax and lessen the harmful effects of stress on the body and mind.

​

  • ​Expressing Feelings: Find healthy outlets to talk about and deal with your feelings, like writing in a diary, talking to a trusted friend or counsellor, or doing things that make you happy.

​

  • Setting Boundaries: Make healthy rules for yourself in relationships and what you do. Healthy boundaries include knowing and telling others what you need and respecting the needs of others. Also, knowing when to say "No" helps you stay strong and not feel overwhelmed or burnt out. 

​

  • ​Self-Care: Prioritise activities that make you feel happy, relaxed, and fulfilled, like spending time in nature, doing things you enjoy, or being kind to yourself.

Social Connections & Support

Building meaningful relationships and getting help from others is essential for emotional wellbeing and resilience.

​

  • ​Social Support: Grow a network of supportive friends, family members, or peers who are willing and able to provide encouragement, empathy, and practical assistance during difficult times.

​

  • ​Be Part of the Community: Take part in social activities, volunteer, or join clubs or groups with shared interests to create a sense of belonging and new connections.

​

  • ​Communication: Practise more effective communication skills to express your needs, maintain boundaries, and help resolve relationship conflicts. 

​

  • ​Seeking Help: Know when to reach out for professional support from therapists, counsellors, or support groups if you are struggling with your feelings, mental health issues or facing significant life challenges.

Remember - self care and wellbeing are essential to leading a healthier and happier life. And, when you need us The Recovery Group community is here to support you.
