☀️ It's another scorcher!
As lovely as the sunshine can be, this kind of heat can take a real toll on both our body and mind.
If you've noticed you're feeling more irritable, anxious, exhausted or overwhelmed than usual... you're not imagining it. High temperatures can affect our mood, concentration, sleep and energy levels.
Today, give yourself permission to slow down.
💧 Keep a bottle of water close by.
🪟 Open windows or use a fan if you can.
🥗 Eat little and often if a big meal feels too much.
🚶 If you need to be active, choose the cooler parts of the day.
💚 Lower your expectations. You don't have to do everything today.
Remember, self care isn't just bubble baths and spa days. Sometimes it's simply recognising that your body is working harder than usual and responding with kindness instead of criticism.
Be gentle with yourself. The washing can wait. The emails can wait. Your wellbeing can't.
