What does self-care mean to you? Here at Positively Productive Systems, we’ve been talking about it for years and we’ve made an important discovery: Self-care is SO MUCH MORE THAN spa days and expensive pampering treatments. While these treatments can be considered self-care, there are other options so much more effective and far less expensive...many that come with NO cost!

If you’re dealing with a chronic illness (or likely know someone else who is) and/or you need better care for whatever reason, I’m glad I caught you today because this conversation is one you don’t want to miss.

In my recent conversation on the podcast with Amber Tresca (an advocate, activist, and person living herself with a chronic illness) we discussed how:

✔️ Self-care is about managing your condition and supporting your future self
✔️ Small, zero-cost actions can make a massive difference
✔️ Your mental health matters just as much as physical health

Amber shared a long list of fantastic ideas that are proven to work and they are worth sharing.

Here are a few of my favorite strategies, which might seem familiar to you:

1. Hydration 💧
Simply drinking a glass of water can reset your entire system.

2. Nature Reset 🌞
Step outside for 5 minutes. Feel the sun, touch the grass, ground yourself.

3. Emotional Detox 🚫
Unfollow social media accounts that drain your energy (aka decluttering)

4. Stretch & Release 🧘‍♀️
Two-minute stretch breaks can transform your physical and mental state.

5. Connect with Others 💕
Reach out to that one friend who always gets you.

Bonus: These strategies aren't just for people with chronic illness - they're for EVERYONE trying to live a more intentional life.

Self-care looks different for everyone. You get to choose what works for you, and you get to change your mind.

Advocating for your wellness is a journey your future self will thank you for and I'm cheering you on,
