Winter Self Care
(for those folks who live places where it gets pretty cold)
- Hot water bottles
- Constant cups of tea
- Thick socks
- Wear your favourite jumper
- Catch up on reading & studying when its grim outside
- Keep doing things you love - if you write, draw, do sport, do it everyday
- Wrap up warm and go for a walk
- If you can’t get warm go in the bath - its like a new start
- Moisturise your face whenever you can and carry lip balm everywhere
- Don’t let the weather bring you down, make it really cosy inside your room
- Think about things you like about winter, if you’re anything like me you’ll long for winter when its summer and for summer when its winter
- Look after your plants, they’re going through the same thing as you.
