- Self-Care: When life feels busy and demanding, our well-being is often the first thing to take a back seat. By exploring different dimensions of wellness and identifying self-care practices that fit our needs, we can create realistic habits that support our health, resilience, and overall well-being.
- Dopamine Menu: As we move about our lives, we often experience decision fatigue. To overcome this fatigue, we need to develop an intentional awareness of the activities that bring us joy and help us reconnect with ourselves. The goal of this worksheet is to help you brainstorm ideas so that you have one less decision to make when you need a coping strategy.
- Mindful Journaling: Emotional literacy provides us with the ability to: recognize and identify what we are feeling, understand how to put our feelings into words and how to react to our feelings, and know why we may be feeling a certain way. Mindful Journaling is one means to begin building and strengthening that literacy.
- Affirmations: Our self-talk impacts how we view ourselves. When we practice speaking kindly to ourselves, we strengthen our mindsets and improve our ability to overcome challenges.
- Reprioritizing Time: Compassion fatigue, burnout, and secondary trauma can be prevented; however, doing so requires an intentional awareness of where our time goes and the boundaries we set. A lot of times, we feel the need to find time for self-care. Many times, what is better for us is to identify what things on our plates deserve smaller portions or can be removed entirely.
