Call for submissions — what’s your self-care routine?

As creatives, regardless of what we may tell ourselves, our work is connected to our being. A part of us exists in everything we create and that requires a lot of energy which needs to be replenished

What are you doing to take care of yourself? How are you recuperating all that expended energy?

For many of us, we’re creating during the off hours of our daily routines, chaotic lives and different jobs that take up most of our day. But we keep creating because this is our calling. It’s what fulfills us and gives us life. But continuing to create without taking time out for yourself is unsustainable.

Send me your self-care stories. Particularly in these uncertain times, what are you doing to make sure you’re staying mentally healthy?
