We all have a lot going on.
Most of us can’t commit to adding an exhaustive, meticulous self-care routine to our lives when our schedules are already packed to the brim, we have family members to care for, and we have responsibilities that demand our attention.
But that doesn’t mean we could let our mental health fall by the wayside. Whether it’s creating more functional support systems, scheduling a telehealth therapy session instead of trekking across town — or practicing short, positive affirmations when we’re on the go, we can prioritize our self-care and still do everything we need to do.
Positive affirmations are a simple and strategic tool for our self-care. They help us build confidence, reduce stress, and increase our emotional resilience as we move through life, and we have every right to make them short, sweet, and to the point.
