Maintain Your Self-Care Habit or Ritual
Published
Congratulations on making it to the last day of the Build Your Self-Care Routine Challenge powered by CeraVe!
We hope your simple self-care task is becoming a natural and necessary part of your day.
If you’ve successfully turned your self-care habit into a ritual, congrats! We encourage you to keep performing your ritual as long as it serves you. For example, if your ritual is to wake up and spend 5 minutes in a comfortable chair drinking a hot cup of coffee, plan on doing it tomorrow. And the next day. And the one after that. Because it makes you feel good!
You deserve this dedication to your own health and wellness. You deserve some form of self-care that’s engrained into your routine. You deserve a self-care ritual.
Remember: It can take up to 66 days for an activity to become a habit. Are you committed to incorporating self-care for the next 56 days?
Now that you’ve experienced how to begin to build self-care into your life, we’d love to know how you’re doing. Do you notice a difference in how you feel? Is it changing your life in any way? Are you inspired to set a bigger self-care goal, yet? Share with us in the challenge update thread here or reply to us on Twitter, in our private Facebook group or Instagram. Remember to tag us with #healthynurse!
