Let’s Be Honest: Most Self-Care Advice is Trash
Wake up at 5am. Journal. Meditate. Ugh. Most of it feels like a second job. But self-care should work *for* your life—not the other way around.
What Makes a Routine Stick?
- Simple
- Enjoyable
- Flexible
- Easy to start (and hard to mess up)
5 Self-Care Ideas That Don’t Suck:
1. Upgrade your bath with adaptogenic salts.
2. Say no to one thing every day.
3. Eat something that makes you feel alive.
4. Lie down and do literally nothing.
5. Romanticize something boring—light a candle while brushing your teeth.
Self-Care ≠ Self-Improvement
You don’t need to earn rest. You don’t need to hustle through healing. Sometimes self-care is just disappearing into a hot bath with herbs and not talking to anyone.
