Self-care might mean different things to different people, but it benefits the entire family when taken care of oneself. Here are some tips to practice self-care as a family-<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Get up and move every day. Exercising can assist with sadness and anxiety symptoms. Make it a point to raise your heart rate for at least 20 minutes once a day. Take a family walk, stretch together in the living room which can work as self-care strategies for parents, or play games outside together.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-68\" src=\"http:\/\/hhsproviderfund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/family_self_care_3_IMG.jpg\" alt=\"practice self-care\" width=\"872\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"http:\/\/hhsproviderfund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/family_self_care_3_IMG.jpg 872w, http:\/\/hhsproviderfund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/family_self_care_3_IMG-300x147.jpg 300w, http:\/\/hhsproviderfund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/family_self_care_3_IMG-768x376.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 872px) 100vw, 872px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Establish a bedtime routine. For adults and children, going to bed simultaneously every night can help regulate the body&#8217;s internal clock and enhance sleep quality and is one of the best tips to practice self-care as a family. It&#8217;s also critical that everyone in the family gets enough sleep \u2014 adults should get seven to nine hours of sleep a night and youngsters should get at least nine hours.<\/li>\n<li>Express your feelings. It&#8217;s critical to talk about how everyone feels like a family and address any questions or concerns that children may have so that you can make self-care a family priority. Develop a self-reflection practice that includes feelings and thoughts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-67\" src=\"http:\/\/hhsproviderfund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/family_self_care_2_IMG.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"935\" height=\"402\" srcset=\"http:\/\/hhsproviderfund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/family_self_care_2_IMG.jpg 935w, http:\/\/hhsproviderfund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/family_self_care_2_IMG-300x129.jpg 300w, http:\/\/hhsproviderfund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/family_self_care_2_IMG-768x330.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 935px) 100vw, 935px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Be grateful for what you have. Develop the habit of being grateful all of the time. Take a minute to think about all the good that has happened and is happening whenever you&#8217;re too focused on things you don&#8217;t have or can&#8217;t do. It will alter your outlook on life, and educating your children to have a better outlook is a priceless gift.<\/li>\n<li>Get outside and unplug.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Unplugging and going for a stroll is free. For me, being inside for long periods dampens my spirits. Logging off of social media, turning off Netflix, and going outside do wonder. Take in a green environment or a body of water. It&#8217;ll undoubtedly lift your spirits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s important to take a break from the daily grind \u2013 to rest and refresh.
