Self Care
The current situation with COVID-19 and the effect it is having on our students’ and families' lives can cause stress, anxiety and uncertainty, but you still have control over some things. Are you taking care of your self?
This is a worksheet for assessing self-care. It contains suggestions for different areas of self-care that can help you get a sense of how well and how often you are taking care of yourself. Thinking about self-care and what your unique individual needs are can help you make yourself a priority. While going through this exercise, pay attention to how satisfied you are with your patterns of self-care. Are there things you do well? Are there things you want to prioritize? Has school closures changed how you take care of yourself?
After completing this worksheet, take some time to reflect on which areas of your life you feel more or less satisfied with respect to your self-care and one or two steps you can take to take better care of yourself.
