If you were to watch my routine, you\u2019d think I was incredibly detail-oriented, and then you\u2019d think it is taking <em>way<\/em> too long for me to get out the door.<\/p>\n<p>First, it\u2019s the face wash (which I\u2019ve finally figured out isn\u2019t just, you know, hand soap). That\u2019s followed by a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=serum\" target=\"_blank\">serum<\/a>, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=facial%2Bmoisturizer\" target=\"_blank\">moisturizer, <\/a>and an<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=spf\" target=\"_blank\"> SPF <\/a>(50, thanks \u2014I\u2019m translucent; my Mediterranean\u00a0genes betrayed me). Next comes the stretching (and cracking), the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=braggs%2Bapple%2Bcider%2Bvinegar\" target=\"_blank\">apple cider vinegar concoction<\/a> (yes, it does work), the handful of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=multi%2Bvitamin\">vits<\/a> I remember to take, and the occasional YouTube kickboxing workout. All said and done, I behave like a pretty legitimate grown-up. Thing is, this whole song and dance only recently started.<\/p>\n<p>At 18, I was more concerned with how dark I could tan (peer pressure from the local tanning salon, circa 2005), or how much I could party before going to class the next day. I 100 percent never wore SPF or moisturizer, and any workout I did was definitely negated by an I-deserve-it carb explosion. The worst thing I did? Ordered a Venti latte (made from\u2014this is not a lie\u2014half and half) at least once a week. <em>Half. And. Half.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I just wasn\u2019t concerned with basic self-care techniques. I\u2019d stay up all night during college and it followed me to when I started working in the \u201creal world.\u201d Who cares, I thought? I\u2019d lived on four hours of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=sleep\">sleep <\/a>since I was 15; why not keep it going?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/02\/21\/quit-alcohol-for-30-days\/\">I Quit Drinking Alcohol For A Month\u2014Here\u2019s How It Went<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Turns out there were plenty of reasons not to, actually.<\/p>\n<p>I didn\u2019t realize how these behaviors would affect me now, at age 30. I\u2019d run full steam ahead on bad eating habits, way too much wine (\u201cat least it\u2019s not tequila\u2026\u201d), and I had a distaste for working out. If I was stressed, I ate. If I was tired, I ate. If I was busy, I\u2019d snack on empty calories. And when I woke up for work, I\u2019d brush my teeth and run out the door.<\/p>\n<p>Then I\u2019d wonder why I felt sluggish all the time. My skin was always broken out. I was constantly dealing with shoulder cramps. And I was gaining weight. I made no time for me\u2014no time to just be alive, to take care of myself, to listen to my body.<\/p>\n<p>Just saying the words \u201clisten to my body\u201d makes me cringe (I\u2019m not one for self-care-<em>isms<\/em>), but the reality is that I didn\u2019t listen to my body. I actively turned away from care habits because I was \u201cbusy\u201d or \u201cI didn\u2019t need them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But when I was 25 I was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\">diagnosed with arthritis<\/a> and I realized I needed to wake up. My actual body was falling apart, and the extra weight on my joints was a problem. I needed to start stretching, to start working out, to start eating well. I needed to quit the amount of sugary alcohol I was drinking and I needed to start taking care of my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/weight-management\/N-8i9?search1=weight%20loss\">skin<\/a>. I needed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=energy\">energy.<\/a> I was tired-looking and worn out. I became a zombie with a robust social calendar and a refrigerator full of garbage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/03\/07\/arthritis-young-age\/\" target=\"_blank\">What It&#8217;s Like To Have Arthritis In Your Twenties<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I fought this reality with a stubbornness that ought to be applauded (really, I <em>win<\/em> at being stubborn), but I eventually succumbed to the necessity of self-care and now I\u2019m better for it.<\/p>\n<p>So what did I do?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>I started eating better.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This was the hardest change. I became more cognizant of calories and portions, which is tough when what you want to do is eat all the cheese and all the bread. I began making salads and cooking veggie dishes and turning to whole foods. I stopped eating chocolate cereal and bagels at midnight (I live in NYC\u2014I can order anything I want at any hour), and I started checking the side of the box for nutrition facts. It\u2019s incredibly easy to eat double your daily caloric need every day, I realized. I mean, <em>it\u2019s simple. <\/em>If I was more aware earlier, I could have avoided the weight gain, the stomach issues, and the bad habits I fight to kick these days.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>I started being kind to my skin.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This may seem trivial and vain, but it\u2019s not. We have to live in our bodies all of our lives, so why not nurture them? I\u2019m not the hugest fan of dry, cracked skin\u2014and I certainly don\u2019t want to age prematurely, so why shouldn\u2019t I do what it takes to care for myself? I try to use products that come from mostly natural sources, and I make sure I cover my face and skin in SPF when I\u2019m in the sun. Cancer is the pits, and I\u2019m not going to risk it because I\u2019m lazy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/bath-beauty\/N-8no\">Keep your skin in tip-top shape with these bath &amp; beauty products<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>I learned to love water.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I used to think lots of coffee and milk was the key to hydration. Somehow, I was wrong; I constantly felt terrible. Water is so epically underrated that it\u2019s no surprise people have to remind others to drink it. First, with a meal it helps to keep you full (so you don\u2019t go back for several servings you don\u2019t need). And then it helps hydrate your skin, and it flushes toxins from your system. A huge glass of water first thing in the morning has changed my life for the better. Pro-tip: Set a reminder to take your vitamins with your first glass of water. Turns out, vitamins actually work. (I was apparently the last person to figure this out.)<\/p>\n<h2><strong>I started going to bed before midnight.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I love staying up late and am most productive during the witching hours. But once I decided to stop fighting sleep, I felt like a human being\u2014radiant, energetic, happy, engaged, responsible. What is lost from those magical evening hours is gained ten-fold the next day. Had I done this earlier on, I don\u2019t think I would have had so many rough days and so little energy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/weight-management\/N-8i9?search1=weight%20management\" target=\"_blank\">Shop weight-management products to help you reach your goals.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>I took time to hang out alone.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I used to cram my schedule with engagements: work, post-work work, post-work networking, weekend work, late-night social events, parties, meet-ups. It was like I was always on, always scheduled. Sitting on the couch in silence became a foreign thing to me; I was lost, and I didn\u2019t even know it. Once I began understanding the difference between productivity and success (success doesn\u2019t simply come from work; it comes from balance), I felt so much more alive. I could see more clearly, and I could see what I\u2019d been missing all along: my self.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>I stopped caring about the rules.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Everyone always says that they have all the answers. And sometimes<em> I<\/em> say I have all the answers. But I\u2019ve learned that self-care and personal happiness are unique for everyone.
