self-care for writers

Self-kindness, better known as self-care, can be vital for writers and artists who need compassion when hitting creative blocks but still continuing a project.

Self-care doesn’t always mean what we see in the media (face masks and spa days) but is more about creating a routine that is routed in self-kindness and empowerment.

How does this help with success you might ask?

Self-care is important because learning healthy habits that reduce stress, prioritize wellness, and allow you to take a time-out when you need it can help you feel better, think clearer, stay healthy, and be resilient.

It’s so important to make sure you take good care of your body, mind, and soul every day, not just when you get sick, and creating a self-care routine is the first step in that direction.
