I think it’s very important to cherish those moments that you can spend with yourself and give attention to how you’re feeling. Taking a moment to relax and reflect on the day is so important. Especially with the high burnout rate among all groups in society at the moment, I think this is key to fight it. So here are my 10 ideas to spend 10 minutes a day to yourself, besides going to the gym. Although here are 5 workouts you can do at home if the 10 ideas below don’t work for you!

  1. Go for a 10 minute lunch walk by yourself.

    I can attest that self care is the hardest part of adulting. The ten minutes a day guide is a great place to start.

    Great list. I’ll admit that with everything that I need to take care of these days, taking care of myself can definitely take a back seat. I need to start making more time for myself.
