6 Ways To Practice Self-Care (Yes, It Is Important)

Go To Your Favorite Coffee Shop

Grab your laptop, get your favorite cup of coffee, find a comfy chair and relax. Alone.

Work Out

Taking care of your body is incredibly important. Everyone has lazy days, but make it a point to set aside thirty minutes to an hour a few times a week and sweat out your crazy day in the gym!

Read A Self Help Book

There are a ton of great self care books that aren't cheesy, you just have to find one that you enjoy. I promise once you find one that you like to read, it can help to make you think about life differently.

Some self care books I highly recommend are Girl, Wash Your Face, YOU Are a Badass, 10% Happier, The Elephant In The Gym, and Loving What Is.

Go (Window) Shopping

Even if you're #ballingonabudget because same, you can still go and look around at cute clothes that you can buy once you somehow get money.

Journaling

Journaling isn't something I do all too often, when I do it is the best. Journaling is a great way to get all your thoughts and emotions on paper and somehow makes you feel so much better??? Journaling also shouldn't just be for when you are having a bad day, it should be for mediocre days and good days!!

Proper Skin Care Routine

Cleanser. Toner. Serum. Eye Cream. Moisturizer. Your skin will thank you.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
