​“The truth will set you free. But first it will piss you off.” – Gloria Steinem

Okay, so we aren’t here to piss anyone off today, but we do want to unleash the TRUTH of self care and set you free.

When we think self care, we think bubble baths, women in their 20s-30s, the newest trend of shared blogs, spa days.

This can be self care, self care DOES apply to everyone, no matter who you are. We especially believe it is important for parents of all stages, in order to raise children to be strong, self sufficient people who also believe they’re deserving of self care.

It seems though, that we really don’t understand what self care is in society. Sure, bubble baths and spa days can be great, but when people resort to those strategies for self care, they often start to feel as it is an indulgent thing that can only be taken advantage of sometimes.

The TRUTH? Self care is common sense. Self care is for everyone. Self care can happen every day. It’s all about how much of a priority it is in our lives, and here at NY Baby Co. we believe it should always be a big one!

So how do you figure out what YOU need? How do you take care of yourself without in turn stressing yourself out about when you can fit a bubble bath into your day? We are so glad you asked! It’s one simple question.

“What will bring me joy today?”

That’s right! Self care doesn’t need a box. Self care can be different thing for different people. Here are some common ones we see among our clients:
  • A nap
  • Time to exercise
  • Time to indulge in a hobby that went to the wayside
  • Looking up recipes
  • Gardening
  • Spending time with a friend or talking on the phone uninterrupted

But really, self care can be ANYTHING! It is anything that makes you happy or fills your cup. Yes, it can often be hard to set aside time, but when the time is set aside, we are recharged and refreshed for whatever the day (and probably night) has to bring us!
​
What about you? What are your favorite self care tactics?
