We hear a lot about SELF-CARE, but do we really know what that looks like? Here are a few suggestions:
Unplug from Social Media
Watch your Favorite Movie
Create a Gratitude List
Bake Something
DIY Facial and a Good Book
Connect with a Friend
Think of something that makes you feel cared for or that brings you joy and do that! Care for yourself! You are always pouring so much into others. Let’s pause this month and do something to take care of YOU!
 
And remember to share these great ideas on Facebook so we can encourage others to do the same.

Compassion

Showing kindness, caring, and being willing to help others is what we are focused on this month when we are talking about Compassion. This is a word for a very positive emotion that has to do with being thoughtful. When you feel compassion for someone, you really want to help out. Here are a few suggestions:
Be Present. Listen to others without thinking of what you will say.
Do more than someone expects.
Double your dinner and share it with someone else.
Be aware of those around you, everyone needs a smile these days!
Let someone in front of you in line.
Volunteer at a food bank.
Giving to Purposeful Partner (look on the page on our website and reach out to our Purpose Partners.)
Make no-sew blankets for shelters.
Send a gift card to someone in need.
Visit someone who is in the hospital or nursing home
Leave books or trial size hygiene products in a little free library.

Soul Care is about stopping for conversation, the chance to rest or read, opening up to God’s presence, guidance and ultimately love. This month we want you to practice Soul Care! Here are a few suggestions:
Prayer and/or Meditation
Sign up for a Retreat or Conference
Focus on Forgiveness
Start a Prayer or Gratitude journal
