5 Ways To Implement Self Care Into Your Everyday Life

It's so easy to get stuck in the midst of every day life and neglect your self and body when it needs attention most. This can range from not drinking enough water to having a stressful work environment. Below I've listed ways to stop these stressful cycles and start some self care that doesn't take up your whole day and is easy to make a habit of.


1. Drink Plenty of Water

This is so important. If you're not hydrated, your body just isn't happy and not being the best it can be. Not drinking enough water can make it hard to stay awake and get through the day without dozing off or wishing you could sneak away for a mid-day nap.

2. Eat Healthy.


Just like not drinking enough water, your body just can't give or feel 100% if you're feeding it junk.

3. Keep Candles in Your Room.


Whether candles or incense be your choice, keeping these around is enough to make you feel at ease and almost like you're in your own personal spa.

4. Have Treat Your Self Nights.

Pick a night, order in some food, get a Netflix show to binge, and gather up some things to make yourself feel good and you've got it. Whether that be face masks, painting your nails, or taking a bubble bath.. just take some time to enjoy the night.

5. Create a Skin Care Routine.


Our bodies respond to routines- they like them. Keeping up a skincare routine is going to keep your skin in check along with making you feel like you have something to look forward to in the morning or in the evening.

Remember you deserve to take some time to relax and unwind, your body will thank you!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
