Another two elements of emotional self care are Expressing Emotions and Affirming Self.

When we express emotions we:
1. Reduce stress: Bottling up feelings can make stress worse. Letting it out helps your body and mind relax.
2. Improve Relationships: Authentic communication strengthens connections and builds trust with others.
3. Boost Self-Understanding: By acknowledging your feelings, you learn more about yourself and grow emotionally.

Affirming self highlights the importance of the voice. The brain believes what it hears most often. So we want to practice speaking positive over negative. If we could harness the power of our voice for good, by replacing self-doubt with affirmations, self-encouragement, and gratitude, we’d be building a mental foundation based on trust, self-love, and confidence.

Emotional self care, is seldom thought of, but integral in any self care routine. Let's ensure that we include it going forward.

See you on Sunday as we continue our recap.

44/ 52: Review

We have come to the last few weeks of the year and its time to review and cement all that we have discussed. Our challenge was based in self care and addressing each type in various ways.
After setting the foundation and focusing on loving ourselves we turned our attention to emotional self care. Two elements of this type of self care are Setting Boundaries and Practicing Self Compassion.
Boundaries refer to the limits we set for ourselves in terms of how much we’re willing to give, tolerate, or engage with others in various aspects of our lives—emotionally, physically, and mentally. These boundaries help protect our well-being, define our personal space, and allow us to maintain a healthy sense of self.
Healthy boundaries protect our energy, teach others how to treat us and reduce our stress.
Self - compassion is the practice of treating yourself with the same kindness, care, and understanding as you would a close friend, especially during times of struggle, what we consider failure, or emotional difficulty.
Self compassion involves acknowledging that we are human, being kind to ourselves and being mindful of our emotions without applying judgement.
These two steps are integral in our emotional self care.
How did you do with these challenges? Let us know!

Is the budget completed?
I must admit that when I started working on mine, I concluded that it makes financial sense to buy nothing. Just treat the holidays/ end of December like any other month, and we will be ok 😀.

Maybe you reached a different conclusion.

Regardless, I hope the value of budgeting was underscored and it is a habit you will carry into new seasons.

Join us on Sunday as we start our recap of self care types to round out our year.

An emergency fund is an often overlooked element of financial self care.
Hopefully, this week, we were all prompted to start- or consider starting- our own. It not only creates a cushion for the inevitable but provides an avenue through which we can better cope with the stress that the unexpected brings.

If you haven't started, let today be the day.

Join us on Sunday for the final challenge in our look at financial self care.

Enough is an interesting term, as it is relative to the individual using it. What is enough for you? Enough money, land, investments.....what type of home or car is enough? Having the answer to that question is vital in understanding your emotional reaction to money and your financial self care.

I hope this week was revealing, and you are now well on the way to determining what financial self care looks like for you.

See you on Sunday for the next challenge.

41/52: Pt 2. Relationship with Money

10/10/2025

What revelations did you have about your relationship with money this week? Were you able to reflect, identify your beliefs and name patterns?

The majority of our feedback surrounded accepting that the concept of financial self care is real and then realizing that emotions are connected to the wallet.

This may be new to many of us, but understanding financial self- care is a vital step in our journey.

Join us on Sunday as we dig deeper.

Batteries are interesting. Many types don't allow users to know when they are losing charge. We have all experienced starting our vehicles and realizing the battery is dead after just turning it off. Or attempting to use the torch, calculator, etc, and having no power.

Thankfully, there are signs when our social battery is waning. Let's not only monitor ourselves for these signs but be premptive and set social downtime into our schedule. This reduces the probability of sudden depletion.

Continue to monitor your battery and join us on Sunday for the next challenge.
