How do you self-care?

A friend recently asked me, “Gina, how do you have so much energy?!”

My first response was: “Acupuncture!”


But after I thought about it for a few minutes, I went on to explain that it was actually ALL of this:

 getting 8 hours of sleep every night

 regular acupuncture (every 3 weeks, for over 10 years)

drinking tons of water (I don’t keep track of how much I drink, but I always have my water bottle next to me, so it reminds me to drink it.)

 healthy eating (on most days I skip dairy and gluten and eat fruit, veggies and fish or chicken)

 being outside daily (the park, the beach, a pool, the riverwalk)

 enjoying my career (I’m obsessed with it!)

 daily gratitude reminders (Sometimes it’s as simple as waking up and saying, “Thank you Universe for Gregory, Olivia, Vinnie and my cozy home.”)

 spending lots of time with my family (It’s the most important thing to me. And between Greg and myself we have A LOT of family so there’s always something fun to do with them!)

So how about you, what’s your favorite self-care activity or daily habit? Comment below and let me know.
