Have you thought about what your self-care plan will look like this year? It is a good time of year to reflect on any changes you want to make in your life to become a better version of yourself. We all need to improve in some areas of our lives. There is nothing wrong with taking a look at what you can do better.

Whatever it may be, I promise that having some intentions set up will help you reach your goals that much faster. Need to make more time to take care of yourself? I know that is a big question which most of us will answer…yes but HOW!

The first step in making any lasting change is to be aware of what needs to be different. Journaling is a very therapeutic exercise and helps to uncover answers you may be in need of. In my last post, I wrote about the first 10 days of the Intentions challenge from Gratitude Glass Jars that we recently finished in my private self-care Facebook group.

The Next 10 Self-Care Intentions

Day 11: Heart – Do you follow your heart? What prevents you from doing so?

Day 13: Authenticity – In what areas of your life are you not authentic?

Day 14: Boundaries – Do you have healthy boundaries? If not, why are you hesitant to set them?

Day 15: Pace – How do you feel about the pace of your life? If you need to slow down, how can you? If you need more excitement, how will you add it?

Day 17: Regrets – Do you have any regrets in your life so far? What changes can you make?
