Spending the majority of our time caring for others can be exhausting, especially if we don’t make time to care for ourselves. The toll that nursing can take on both our bodies and our emotions shouldn’t be overlooked.
That’s why planning something as simple as a spa day is so important. Taking just a few hours to relax and enjoy pampering treatments at the spa can make a huge difference in how we feel. Rather than making excuses for why you can’t fit it in to your schedule or shouldn’t spend the money, go ahead and book that spa day. You’ll be so glad that you made yourself a priority.
By practicing self-care often, it will help you to be a better nurse.
