We often get so caught up in the world around us, so concerned about the people beside us, so stuck in the busy routines of our long days, I think, that we so frequently forget to think of the most important thing: you.

Think of the last time you thought of a fun thing to do but pushed it away because you didn't have the time. Or the last time you wanted to buy something you loved but convinced yourself to walk out of the store empty handed. The last time you gave up your free time to help someone else.

Now, think of the last time you did something for yourself, solely because you wanted to. If you can't, then chances are it's been awhile since you treated yourself.

This list is for you.

1. Take a walk in a beautiful place. Not only is this good for your body, its good for your mind. Focusing on what is around you will get your mind off other things you may be stressing about.

2. Paint your nails. If you're really feeling extra generous then go out and buy a new color.

3. Watch a movie or binge watch your favorite show, and -- the really important part is that you cannot feel guilty about it.

4. Explore that place in town you've been meaning to go to. Make reservations at that restaurant you've been saying you have to try for six months now.

5. Color, paint, craft something, create.

6. Make yourself a smoothie -- or an ice cream sundae. You pick!

7. Take a nap.

8. Take some time to read that book you have been eyeing. If this seems like too daunting of a task for you to commit to, at the very least go walk around a book store.

9. Go to a cycling class, yoga class, or whatever kind of class floats your boat. These are centered all around you and your mind and body. These instructors work wonders. I swear they are therapists in their own way.

10. Take a bubble bath. Your inner child will be ecstatic.

11. Journal. Write your thoughts down.

12. Indulge in Pinterest. Looking at pretty pictures doesn't solve your problems, but it also never created any.

13. Take extra time on your hair or makeup. Wear the outfit that makes you feel the most confident. Play music while you get ready, too. Enjoy the process.

14. Cook your favorite meal.

15. Sit and watch the sunset. Or, if you have to be up early, the sunrise. Stargaze. Appreciate the beauty around you.
