14 Days of Self-Love

Self-love is in the air this Valentine’s Day season! We encourage you to take active steps in taking care of your mental health and well-being every day of the year. Taking the time to care for yourself (which can look different for everybody) is not only necessary but can have positive outcomes. For example, I practice self-love by writing in my journal and reflecting on what is happening in my life. When I do this, I notice my anxiety and stress levels dramatically decrease and am able to focus better.

Wellness encompasses several different dimensions. They include: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, social, occupational, environmental, intellectual, and financial.  Here at the Financial Wellness Center, we believe each of us should take time to prioritize our physical and emotional well-being. When we focus on these wellness aspects, we are simultaneously bettering our financial state and needs! 

Practice self-love this Valentine’s day (and really the entire year) by completing these activities! 

1. Turn off social media for a day
2. Spend some quality time alone 
3. Write yourself a love letter
4. Spend time with your family and friends
5. Get 7-9 hours of sleep

8. Create a vision board 
9. Read a book 
10. Go on a hike
11. Look through old photographs and videos 
12. Try something new

Pay yourself and invest in your future (create a budget, open a savings account, open up an IRA)
