Identify Your Rewards

Published
We’re halfway through the challenge, and you should now have some self-care in your routine. How’s it going?

As you complete your self-care activity, you should feel some type of “reward.” The reward for any habit is the end result. For example, if exercising for 30 minutes is your self-care habit, the reward is how you feel when you’re done — increased energy, an upbeat mood from feel-good hormones, or even weight loss.

Here’s a sample habit loop that describes a reward for drinking your morning cup of Joe:

 
Cue Craving Response Reward
You wake up. You want to feel more awake, alive, and aware. You drink a cup of coffee. This satisfies your craving to feel awake, alive, and aware. Now, you associate drinking coffee with waking up.


What reward do you receive when you show yourself some love in the form of self-care? Whatever it is, we hope it brings you some joy and fills up your cup. If your reward is significant enough, it’ll motivate you to keep doing your self-care habit.

Share what your reward will be with us here or reply to us on Twitter, in our private Facebook group or Instagram. Remember to tag us with #healthynurse!
