Self Care is More Than Just Bubble Baths and Yoga

May 19, 2020 By hannarfoster Leave a Comment

Now, don’t take offense to the subject line if you like bubble baths and yoga – believe me, I enjoy those things too. I take a bath/shower almost every night before bed as part of my sleep routine. Yoga is a staple in my list of exercise go-tos. But I feel like it is all […]

Sleep & Your Health

May 12, 2020 By hannarfoster Leave a Comment

Getting the proper amount of sleep helps lower stress on the body. Individuals who get at least 7hrs of sleep a night have been shown to have lower cortisol levels. Cortisol is a hormone that can hinder your body’s ability to lose fatty tissue – if that’s not a good reason to get enough sleep, […]

Half Marathon Training Must Haves

January 14, 2020 By hannarfoster Leave a Comment

The first half marathon I trained for wasn’t really my choice – I mean no one was holding a gun to my head or bribing me with paying off my student loans to do it, but it was either have the gym I work for pay for my entrance fee or volunteer to work the […]

Of course I’d rather you get a reusable mask - one you can wash everyday, maybe more than one so you can rotate.

But for the love of Mother Earth
P L E A S E
throw your disposable masks away. They can’t be recycled - so they have to make it into the trash otherwise they can harm your local ecosystem, get into waterways, or harm animal life.

Masks and gloves aren’t worse for the environment than cigarette butts or water bottles - but the alarming rate that PPE is being improperly discarded is exponentially increasing the amount of litter on Earth.

Words of wisdom from @careof - screen time before Words of wisdom from @careof - screen time before bed can disrupt your sleep quality. The light and content in your mindless scrolling can interrupt your body’s natural plans for sleep and can distract your mind from noticing natural sleep cues.

-pick up a book
-spend some time lightly moving your body such as yoga or stretching
-meditate
-journal
-spend sometime chatting with friends/family

Setting up a bedtime routine is one of the first things I speak with clients about if they say they’re always tired. Having a routine will start to cue to your body that it is time for bed, just like the cue of the sun going down each night naturally cues animals that it is time for sleep.

The secret to losing fat and being healthier ⬇️ Eat a well balanced meal of foods you love, most of the time.

You heard me. The secret is not avoiding any certain kind of food, or only eating during certain times. It’s eating well balanced meals (fat, protein, fiber, and veggies) full of foods you love - not foods that are on a “good” list. And it’s eating these meals, most of the time - no need for perfection, or never having your nana’s potato salad or mom’s baked mac&cheese, just eat balanced for 80-90% of the time.

Diets suck because you’re either hungry, tired of eating the same thing, or feeling deprived.

The key to not feeling hungry, bored or deprived? Eat a well balanced meal of foods that you love - most of the time.

Let’s talk about how the media portrays self car Let’s talk about how the media portrays self care 👇🏼 If you eat perfectly healthy, exercise every day, take relaxing bubble baths every night and be sure to meditate every morning your life will magically be fixed.

Y E S - those things are a part of self care. And eating mostly healthy and exercising regularly, and spending time trying to still your mind are B I G parts of self care. But self care isn’t that simple, and it’s definitely not as glamorous as a bubble bath with a glass of wine every night.

S O M E T I M E S - self care is nitty gritty. It’s getting in the shower after 2 too many days without washing your hair. It’s making yourself clean up your kitchen or living room or work space because the last week has been so crazy you’ve left stuff every where and now it’s making you anxious. Self care is forcing yourself to go on a walk because you’ve been laying in bed all weekend.

Self Care/of taking care of your mental, physical, and emotional well being. And sometimes the things we need to do the most are mundane day to day tasks that we’ve put off.

Don’t let the media fool you into thinking that you’re not practicing self care the “right” way because you’re not taking bubble baths every night or spending time on your yoga mat every morning.

Because if you’re showing up for yourself somehow each day - you’re doing self care.
