If there is a time to take care of yourself, it is during wedding planning. You will feel very excited at first. It feels like you can conquer the world. But over time, you may feel stressful and wonder if you want to complete the entire wedding.
Life is very busy, and the to-do list seems to never end. Self-care is one of the best ways to prepare for your wedding. And this is not selfish. If you are exhausted, how do you enjoy your big day? Taking care of yourself can help you keep your feet on the ground, don’t think too much, just let the flow go. In the end, you will become a happier bride-to-be.
Here are some simple ways you can take care of yourself while wedding planning and beyond.
Plan some Me Time
Pick up that book you’ve been meaning to read. Sip a cup of tea and just daydream. Binge watch something guilt free. Doodle, write, dance, or take a nap!
Treat Yourself
It’s time to treat yourself and let someone else take care of you for a change. Set up a spa day and get a massage, a mani/pedi, a facial, or a steam bath. Let yourself completely relax and enjoy the moment. No thinking about the wedding or work or family or anything except the present moment and how good the sugar scrub feels on your feet.
Write your feelings
You don’t have to be a writer to keep a journal. Go out and find a notebook that speaks to you, then make it a point to write down your thoughts, your feelings, rants and raves. It’s good to get it all out, and sometimes seeing your thoughts on paper can help you better understand yourself and what’s going on in your life.
Eat Well
All brides typically become extra aware of what they’re consuming leading up to the wedding and sometimes that can actually lead to becoming unhealthy. If you’re not getting the proper nutrition that you need, you’re not only putting your health at risk but you’re also setting yourself up for more stress.
Take At Least 1-2 Days Off Wedding Planning A Week
Wedding planning is basically a full-time job, right? And wedding planning is just like any other job when it comes to needing a break from it. You’ll drive yourself crazy if you’re wedding planning every single day. Give yourself at least 1-2 days off from wedding planning each week.
Sit Back & Breathe
When you need a moment to “just be” or when all else fails, sit back and breathe. When everything wedding planning is overwhelming, just take a moment and breathe.
