Self-care Sunday is something that should be important to everyone. Ultimately, you are the only one responsible for yourself, so it is important to make sure that you are happy, and feel good about yourself going into the week. Here are some tips to practice a great and fulfilling day of self-care.

1. Make some tea.


It's as simple as sitting down and letting some water boil.

2. Go see your/talk to your mom.

Moms are the best, this is a simple fact. Taking a deep breath and dialing up your mother can make anyone feel better.

3. Exercise.


Get up, and move. It is a simple and easy way to show your body that you care for it. Additionally, it will melt all of your stress away.

4. Relax.

Take an hour or seven, and just do nothing. Turn on some Netflix, grab a book, or just take a nap. Your body probably needs it.

5. Make sure you've had enough to eat.


I am often guilty of this. I will get stressed or busy and just forget to eat. But making sure you are getting enough food to function healthily is so important to caring for yourself

6. Take a shower.

7. Splurge on yourself.


It doesn't have to be something huge, it can be as simple as going out to get a coffee. But just making yourself feel special and satisfied can do wonders for your mood.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
