Thank you for your comments, your shares and likes, and your posts to the Maricle Counseling Facebook page. Mostly, I want to thank you for supporting each other, and for bringing your heart and soul to this challenge.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I knew this challenge\u00a0<em>could<\/em> be incredible, but there is a huge risk involved in an undertaking this big. \u00a0What if no one participated? What if all my friends and colleagues saw my updates everyday and thought, &#8220;Geez, she&#8217;s <em>still\u00a0<\/em>doing that? There&#8217;s that self-care thingy. No one is even doing it.&#8221; So I was scared. But anyone who knows me at all knows that I believe taking calculated risks, even small ones, is a key component to feeling happy and fulfilled. So I told myself that if it failed, I would learn a lot, and all I would suffer would be \u00a0a slightly bruised ego.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I started this challenge because I wanted to help people see that even short amounts of time spent on self-care can make a major impact on their\u00a0well-being. I knew it would be really fun, and I hoped that folks might learn a thing or two from each other, but I hadn&#8217;t anticipated what\u00a0an amazing COMMUNITY you all would help create.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Self-Care-Community.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1684\" src=\"https:\/\/mindfulartstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Self-Care-Community-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"Self Care Community\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You took many risks and inspired us with your courage. \u00a0Drawing for the first time in 20 years, going out without makeup, or admitting that you have let your self-care slip, are just a few of the brave things you did. You are what\u00a0made this challenge work. You brought your beautifully crafted, sincere words, and your heart to the comments. This had a contagious effect, the momentum built, and we reached more and more people. What an amazing gift you gave your family, friends, and the world this week. Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Lessons in Self-Care<\/h2>\n<p>I want to share some your insights from\u00a0this week:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Committing to 5 minutes of self-care a day is more effective than putting it\u00a0off because &#8220;I don&#8217;t have time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Art is how I connect with and express what&#8217;s really in my heart and soul. It&#8217;s a tremendous grounding practice that requires quietly tuning in.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I can share publicly about myself in a safe community of people dedicated to the same goals. It wasn&#8217;t so scary, in fact, I enjoyed it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I realized I often let little things stew too long inside of me. I need to learn to let things go more, this is my next self-care goal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; When I slow down and tune in, I can hear what my body really needs. I am committing to doing more yoga daily, even for a short while.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Keeping &#8220;space&#8221; emotionally, physically, and spiritually for self-care practices is what feeds me and allows\u00a0me to feel a little\u00a0joy everyday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Looking for beauty right now, right in front of me, no matter where I am, is one of the fastest ways to add more joy and creativity to my life.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Just 5 minutes of writing can expose concerns so that I\u00a0can take care of my\u00a0needs more effectively.<\/p>\n<p>-Taking in my\u00a0surroundings through my\u00a0five senses and really tuning in is self-care. Mindfulness exercises calm the mind, body, and soul.<\/p>\n<p>-Self-care is stopping to consider what the options are and which would make me\u00a0feel the best.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Drawing can offer perspectives that words don&#8217;t if I\u00a0sit with the image and ponder its metaphors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Self-Care Is an Attitude<\/h2>\n<p>Self-care is an attitude. If you make it a &#8220;given&#8221; in your life, if you decide that everyday must include some self-care, if only 5 minutes, you will cultivate the self-care attitude. It&#8217;s not selfish. You will have much more to give others when you feel emotionally nurtured.<\/p>\n<p>I want you to know that you are so important. Precious. Please remember this and treat yourself accordingly. And if you can&#8217;t believe it right now, let me believe it for you. Act as though you believe it by doing something good for yourself each day. In time you will come to know, as I do, that you are worth it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Self-Care Focus Group<\/h2>\n<p>Do you wish the challenge\u00a0wouldn&#8217;t end?<\/p>\n<p>Are you interested in giving some feedback about what moved you, helped you, guided you, and inspired you in the challenge?<\/p>\n<p>Do you have ideas about how to make the #selfcarechallenge even better?<\/p>\n<p>Would you like to be a part of an online community of supportive people focused on creative, mindful self-care?<\/p>\n<p>You can be a part of a &#8220;focus group&#8221; of sorts by individually answering the above questions via email at: amymaricle@gmail.com.
