Self-care is an important part of daily life so its important to factor it in. The definition of Self-Care is any activity that we do deliberately in order to take care of our mental, emotional and physical health. It is essential to make time to take actions for ourselves, our children, families and others to stay fit and maintain good physical and mental health while also aiming to meet social and psychological needs.

Sleep
Sleep needs vary across our ages and lifestyles. Good quality sleep and regular sleep patterns are crucial to our wellbeing.
Getting a good night’s sleep
- making your bedroom a stress free environment and as dark as possible
- keeping regular times for going to bed and getting up
- getting some sunlight during the day
- trying a calming bedtime routine e.g. warm bath, drink warm milk or herbal tea
- using lavender oil to promote a sense of calm
- taking away all electronic gadgets like phones, TVs and computers
- meditating last thing at night or writing in a journal
- reviewing your day over a couple of minutes like a show-reel and then letting it all go as you prepare for sleep
