6 Type of Self-care You Need to Know

April 25, 2021 By Rana Waqar Leave a Comment

Type of Self-care You Need to Know

There are six types of self-care: emotional, physical, social, practical, mental, and spiritual.

Emotional – Connect, acknowledge and process the full range of emotions through creative expression. Common examples of emotional self-care are journaling, playing music and painting.

Practical – Look for ways you can help make your life less stressful, such as creating a budget, organizing your garage, taking professional development courses or meeting with a financial planner.

Physical – Focus on maintaining or improving your physical health by getting up from your desk to stretch, taking daily walks or focusing on cooking healthy meals. This could also mean choosing to rest instead of checking another item off the to-do list.

Mental – Keep the mind engaged and focused on something you enjoy, such as reading a book, playing scrabble or completing a crossword puzzle.

Social – Build and grow your relationships. Take time to meet with friends, call loved ones and keep date night on the calendar.

Spiritual – Nurture your spirit that allows you to think beyond yourself. For some, this could be religious, such as going to church or praying, but it could also be meditating or hiking.
