You can even just send a text to let them know you’re thinking of them. It’s important to keep up with that genuine human connection.
  • Spa day: When you think of self-care, a spa day comes to mind, right? Take a nice warm bath, throw on a face mask and read a good book. This provides a great way for you to rejuvenate and refresh.

It's so important to remember to just rest sometimes. Everyone moves and grooves at their own pace. Regardless of if you've accomplished a ton or just taken time to take care of yourself-- you've done an amazing job.
