Self-care is deliberately doing activities to take care of your mental, emotional and physical health.
"Self- care is far from self- indulgent, especially among those of us who are committed to serving others. It isn't about being selfish or shirking our responsibilities. It's about figuring out what aspects of our work and schedules we have control over and making choices about how to most effectively spend our time and energy."
"Research indicates that self-care improves your overall mood and helps decrease stress and anxiety. By practicing self-care on a regular basis, you are more equipped to help others."
We have made it a priority to spend this school year educating you on and providing you with self- care strategies and ideas.
To begin your self care journey please complete the self-care questionnaire. We have included a couple of questionnaires to choose from. The questinaire is for you only- a tool to help you understand if you are doing enough for yourself.
