I struggled to maintain a consistent workout routine until I started with 10-minute walks daily. Blocking time in my calendar helped me stay consistent, and tracking my steps motivated me further. Gradually, it became a habit! You can try - a) Pair self-care with daily activities (e.g., meditate after brushing your teeth). b) Reward yourself for small wins to stay motivated. c) Share your goals with a friend for accountability.

Struggling to maintain consistent self-care habits is a common challenge, but you can make them more effective by start small tasks and when you have performed the task in 21 days, you can start change another habit. Create a goal and break it down in small tasks. Share your goals with a friend, join a community, or partner with someone who has similar intentions. Block out time in your calendar for self-care activities just as you would for work or social events. If a habit isn’t working, adjust it. The key is to find methods that fit seamlessly into your lifestyle. Recognize and reward yourself for sticking to your self-care plan, even if it's just mentally acknowledging your effort. #lifecoaching #executivecoach #selfcare #habits

Don't yourself wrong for not being consistent. It's a reminder that we are all perfectly imperfect and often what drove us to neglect self-care habits was chasing after what we thought was perfection. start with making a realistic plan, what are your other commitments? what are the days and times that work better for you. how can you build in flexibility. Know it doesn't all have to be done at once, for example shorter time spent on a habit though doing it more frequently. Only you know what works best for you. Don't try to fit into someone else's plan. Experiment, find what works for you and adjust as you go. Think of seasonal differences, weather changes, having some alternatives when you have challenges will make your more successful.

Self care is an overused concept yet seldom understood. Self care only works if you have taken the time for self discovery and know why you are doing the things that are labeled self care. Self care is the tactics but asking yourself the question why you're doing it is the strategy. The why is the goal. Once that is clear, you will find consistency comes easy. If you need help, you can find an accountability buddy who is on the same path of self-betterment. I recommend hiring a coach to help you with all the steps, from questioning to strategy, to tactics, implementation and next steps. Happy growing!

I’d start with identifying the reasons why they’re struggling. Time? Wrong kind of self-care for them? Guilt? Then these obstacles can be worked through and overcome to establish self-care that works for the individual.

Struggling to keep up with any habits let alone self-care often involves my internal resistance from a specific part of me. I use IFS (internal family system) techniques to identify and understand which part of me is resisting and why. And instead of criticizing that part, I address their concerns with compassion. I ask that part, what would be a small step we could take to get back on track. Then I go do that and build from the momentum.

It all starts with creating room for self-care in your life. 💡The truth is, health isn’t a one-size-fits-all formula. It’s about carving out a space for self-care that fits your unique lifestyle—something comfortable, sustainable, and not stressful. It’s less about willpower and more about setting up your life to support your well-being in a way that feels natural and nourishing to you.

I know that consistency in self-care can be tough, but it starts with keeping things simple and realistic. I focus on small, doable habits, like starting my day with a few deep breaths or ending it with five minutes of journaling. Instead of trying to do everything at once, I pick one habit to build at a time, making it a natural part of my routine. I remind myself that self-care isn’t about being perfect—it’s about progress. On tough days, I aim for small wins, like drinking water or taking a short walk. I also schedule self-care like an appointment, treating it as non-negotiable. Most importantly, I forgive myself for slips and keep trying because taking care of myself is what keeps me strong for others.
