Commitment to Oneself

Practicing self-care requires a commitment to oneself. It means taking time to reflect on one's own needs and developing strategies to meet those needs. It is not a one-size-fits-all approach, as everyone's needs are different. For some, self-care may mean taking a relaxing bath or reading a book, while for others, it may mean going for a run or spending time with loved ones. The key is to find what works for you and make it a regular part of your routine.
