International Self Care Day.
Happy International Self-Care Day! Self-care is an essential part of lung health. Practicing self-care means prioritizing one’s physical, mental, and emotional health and wellness. Many people put the needs of others first. We must work on being similar to the flight attendants who instruct us to put on our oxygen masks first, then assist others. We cannot fully be there for others if we are not practicing our own self care. Can you share a self care practice that works for you?
