The importance of self-care

Self care can be defined as anything that is done for oneself so that it can relax and soothe. By practicing self-care, we will be able to deal with daily stress better. Self-care does not mean doing the same things for everyone because everyone has different ways of doing self-care. Many people think that self-care behaviour is a form of someone's selfishness. This statement is wrong because sometimes if we overthink other people, we forget about ourselves and can not recognize ourselves. Many forms of self-care can be done, including doing me time and listening to songs.
