Good day, and happy weekend, amazing people of hive blockchain. Welcome back to my blog. This is another day in the #inleomonthly prompt. I’m so happy participating in this prompt. How do you prioritize self-care and leisure time?
If there is one thing I value, it is my health. It is very important for us to make time to take care of ourselves. Looking at the way people are dying, you will notice that people don’t take self-care seriously. Then forget that health is wealth. If you break down due to ignorance, those jobs will shut down until you recover. Why then will people not take self-care very seriously? Self-care is very important for our physical, mental, and well-being. It really pains me that the majority of us neglect self-care. It pains me when someone of us finds it hard to bring out money for self-care.
Prioritising self-care and leisure is the last thing African men will think. The manset of an African man is work. They forget that health is very important. Making time for leisure is very important. It is a period in which our body and soul rest. Our health is one thing we should never play with.
It is very necessary for us to set aside time for self-care. It is truly that we are struggling to make sure we achieve our set goals. It is also important that we take care of our health. If there is something I don't joke with, it is my self-care. No matter how busy I am, maybe I should make sure I give myself self-care.
Over the years, I have always neglected my self-care, but there comes a time in my life when I break down and I get to realize that everything is not working. I get to realise that I have failed to give myself self-care. Since I realize the importance of self-care, I don’t joke with it all.
How do I prioritize self-care and leisure?
Self-care and leisure are very essential to we humans, but they have been overlooked more, especially in my country, Nigeria.
Take care of your physical health: the majority of the people in my country only go for self-care when they are sick. For our body systems to function well, you need to take care of your body, eat a well-balanced diet, sleep, and exercise your body.
Going on a leave or take a break: leave and break is very important because it gives us the opportunity to relax our body. It pains me that some will go to work and work for 12 straight hours without going on a break. Break is a way of giving our body self-care.
Do things that make you happy. Always do things that put a smile on your face. I will always tell people that happiness is the key to a long life. For someone like me, I always do things that make me happy. Doing things that make you happy is another means of self-care.
Our self-care is very important. It is very necessary for us to always take care of ourselves; we should always have it at the back of our minds that health is wealth.
How many of us take time from our busy schedule to go for self-care or leisure?
