Self-care is defined as a conscious act a person takes in order to promote their own physical, mental, and emotional health.
Self care doesn’t have to be big and bold or time consuming. Simple acts of care for yourself each day are impactful and if consistent, can compound over time.
We’ve created a Self-Care Menu with the estimated times for you to choose from, pick one or even three intentions for yourself each day. Embrace self-care, be intentional and experience the on-going incredible health and wellness benefits.

| Take 5 deep breaths. | 1-3 min |
| Set a daily intention (no social media 1st hour you are awake). | 1-2 min |
