Self-Care

Self-Care Girlie

Taking time for #1 is at the top of our list. A healthier you leads to healthier and happier relationships and work-life balance.

Self-care is all about prioritizing your well-being and making sure you are taking care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. It involves setting boundaries, practicing self-compassion, and engaging in activities that bring you joy and relaxation. By investing in self-care, you are investing in your overall quality of life and setting the foundation for a more fulfilling and balanced existence.

We are always looking for the best advice on how to gain emotional, mental, and physical balance each month. Sometimes it can be as simple as expressing your feelings through journaling, reading a book, taking a long bath, or talking to a trusted friend or therapist. Other times we need to take a hard look at our diet and boost our exercise routines for better energy levels an overall well-being. One thing that never changes - we have to prioritize self-care to unwind and relax and allow ourselves to rest and recharge with a good night's sleep.

Books We Recommend for Reading on the Beach

Beach Reads This is what we want to have in our bag for traveling this summer and reading on the beach! We are already experiencing record-breaking heat here in Florida, and my home near Daytona Beach has had the A/C running for weeks. We do tend to do a lot of reading on the beach here, and one of my favorite things is talking to out-of-towners or neighbors about what they are diving into as they bask in the sun and salt air. Here’s a roundup of the books I’ve beached with recently, because obviously I can go to the beach 11 ½ months out of the year. Consider me uniquely qualified to curate this list for your reading pleasure! I do have specific genres I like to read at the beach. For me, that’s not the place for any doorstops, multigenerational epics, heavy books about any major war, or any Greek myths that require a lot of brain power. I prefer something that I can dip in and out of between adult beverages and wakeboarding sessions with the kids. And sunscreen reapplication and building drip castles and hunting for sharks’ teeth! Here are my recent favorite beach reads, there
