Embrace the power of doing nothing for self-care: Scheduling rest time is a productive choice for self-care, leading to better well-being and care for others.
Taking time for self-care and rest is not a sign of laziness or unproductivity, but rather an essential act of self-love and care for others. Kate Cocker shared her friend's struggle with feeling guilty for taking time for herself, leading to exhaustion and mindless scrolling through social media instead. Instead, we should intentionally schedule rest time into our days and view it as a productive choice, allowing us to recharge and better care for those around us. As Kate reminds us, "Choosing to sit and do nothing is choosing something," and self-care is crucial for maintaining positivity and well-being. So, let's embrace the power of doing nothing and trust ourselves to make time for self-care. Remember, you're not letting anyone down by taking care of yourself; instead, you're ensuring that you're at your best to support those around you.
