Self-care means different things for different people. For some, it could be as extensive as going on week-long vacations every few months to unwind. Getting the best beauty and fitness regimens. Hiring personal chefs/nutritionists to make sure nothing goes into their system. Except, of course, the healthiest foods available. Others, however, like it nice and simple. Such as reading a good book with some hot cocoa on the side. Ultimately, it leads to peace of mind.

Aries (March 21-April 19)
Affirmations. Nothing perks you up better than giving yourself love and positivity first thing in the morning. Don’t fret about yesterday, nor worry about tomorrow. Focus on the present and everything this beautiful day has to offer. Just like what Viola Davis tells the four-year-old girl in the movie The Help: “You is kind, you is smart, you is important”.
Taurus (April 20- May 20)
Look good, feel good. Sometimes when you look like a drag, you feel like a drag. So give yourself a little pick me up. Get a new haircut, some mani/Pedi, and use that makeup you bought before it expires! Remember, no one loves you like you. No one can pamper you the way you do!
Gemini (May 21- June 20)
Stay away from drama. Life’s complicated as it is. There is no need to mess it up some more. Mind your own business and keep yourself busy. Find a hobby, bring out the writer, the chef, the baker in you. But steer clear from gossip. Because an idle mind is the devil’s workshop.
Cancer (June 21- July 22)
A rejuvenating bath is what you need. It’s time to finally give yourself that bubble bath you’ve long been putting off. You deserve it. Throw in some Epson salts, use crystals, open up those essential oils. Put in some soothing music and a glass of wine by your side. Then dive in. Expect your blues and anxiety to melt away within minutes.
Leo (July 23- August 22)
Unleash your creativity. Dying to finish that painting you’ve started? Or that novel with a zillion drafts? How about that song whose only missing piece is the bridge? You’re the most creative of all the zodiacs. Don’t waste it!
Virgo (August 23- September 22)
Stop bottling things up. You hate conflict, so instead of speaking your mind and being honest about how you feel, you just nod in agreement most of the time. Know that this will drive you nuts in the long run. Keep it real, stop faking your emotions- for your own good.
Libra (September 23- October 22)
Be grateful. No matter how bad things get, always count your blessings. Millions of people are dying to be in your shoes. Keep a notebook and jot down all the things that you are thankful for every single day. Big or small, a blessing is a blessing.
Scorpio (October 23- November 21)
Banish negativity in your life. Get rid of people, places, things, and situations that drain the life out of you. Life’s too short to be wasted on regrets, fear, and despair. Live every day like it’s the last day of your life.
Sagittarius (November 22- December 21)
Stop being too uptight. Loosen up a bit. Take up those belly-dancing lessons you’ve been postponing the past year. Not only will it loosen up those tight muscles in your thighs, booty, and hips, you’ll also unleash your sensuality and awaken your creativity.
Capricorn (December 22- January 19)
Get enough sleep. You work too hard. Sleep is the last thing on your priority list. Wrong. It should be on top. If you are not well-rested and hardly have any sleep, your chances of having a productive day are basically ruined.
Aquarius (January 20- February 19)
Do some yoga. It will do wonders for your body, heart, mind, and soul. Focus is the key to success. If you’re too distracted and longing for calm and wish to get rid of the chaos in your heart and mind, yoga is your answer.
Pisces (February 20- March 20)
Don’t carry your troubles to bed. Get a long hot shower, put on your most comfy pj’s, add some lavender scent on your pillow, and that amethyst crystal beside you. Have everything you need to create the perfect bedtime ritual. You need it.
