5 SELF-CARE TIPS FOR MANAGING SCLERODERMA
BE MINDFUL
One of the best things we can do as a form of self-care is practise gratitude and be intentional with our time. Getting a gratitude journal you can write in every day, or saying three things you’re grateful for first thing in the morning, have incredible impacts on our mindset, and set us up to have a better day. Filling your home with things that make you happy will also help you to have a positive mindset. Get a bouquet of your favourite flowers delivered to fill your home with colour, or perhaps spend some time crafting with a young loved one so you can put their drawings on your walls! Finally, feel the sun once a day (while wearing sunscreen). This might be in the form of an outing to the beach or park or just spending some time by an open window, but any time you can spend being intentional in the sun is also highly beneficial, warming our skin and grounding us. Try to take some time to be mindful of your breathing when you’re in the sun, and take some deep breaths to further be present.
