We know that as a domestic worker your work is demanding and often leaves you with little time for yourself. However, it is important to prioritize self-care to maintain your physical and mental health.
Taking time to care for yourself can help you feel more energized, refreshed, and better equipped to handle the challenges of your job. Here are a few simple self-care tips that you can try:
1.Eat well, get enough sleep and exercise physically every day.
2.Do an activity you enjoy or find meaningful everyday (e.g., art, reading, prayers, talking to a friend)
3.Take time to talk to friends or family about your work or anything that interests you.
4.Establish daily routines.
5.Practice gratitude. Make a short list (paper or in your head) of ways you have helped other or things that you are grateful for.
6.Focus on what you control and let go of things that you can’t. Practice stress management and relaxation.
Remember, taking care of yourself is not selfish – it is essential for your well-being. By prioritizing self-care, you can better serve others and feel more fulfilled in your work.
