By stepping away from daily pressures and dedicating time to self-care, you allow your mind and body to relax and recharge.
Tip #5. Digital Detox

Tip #6. “Me Time”
Allocating time for yourself is an important act of self care.
Whether it’s getting your nails manicured, having a massage, taking a bath, or simply relaxing with a cuppa skimming through your favourite magazine is essential for recharging your energy.
