The responses show that people have different ways of practicing self-care. Some common themes are taking breaks, getting sufficient rest and sleep, eating well and engaging in physical activities.
Taking breaks includes various forms such as deep breathing exercises, stretching, meditation, and disconnecting from digital devices. Getting some sunshine and enjoying nature also helps to boost one's mood. Alone time is precious for self-reflection and recharging, but connecting with loved ones is equally important for mental health.
Other suggestions include keeping a journal, engaging in personal interests, having me-time at home spas or treating oneself to professional massages or facials. People also find that simple acts like catching up on sleep, eating nutritious meals, and indulging in feel-good movies help them stay energized and centered.
Overall, the participants recognize the importance of self-care in maintaining sanity and preventing burnout. They make conscious efforts to incorporate these healthy habits into their routines despite their busy lives.
