A listicle about 5 of the most important and easily forgotten things that we should do for ourselves.
Take care of yourself
Out of all the aspects in our lives, health and wellness are the most important ones. It's important to take measures to make yourself happy. Eat your favorite foods, splurge every now and then, do the things that make you ridiculously happy. It's never a good idea to do something when you're not okay, so take that mental health day once in a while.
Let your family and friends be an active part of your life
Even on your darkest days, don't forget that there is always someone who loves and cares about you. Of the billion people in the world, there is at least one person who has your back. Often times, that person is either a friend or a family member. Don't forget how much these people mean to you. Call them and check up on them.
Love yourself before you love someone else
One of the best things that you can do for yourself is love yourself. Love the things that make you uniquely you. Love your quirks, your smile, your laugh. Once you learn to love your whole body and mind, then you can start to love someone else.
Go to that party, go the dance, go to that social event
Just go. You never know who you might meet or what might happen. Don't miss out on a chance to go to a social outing.
