Dear John,

I’m in London this weekend to celebrate the life of our friend, Ileen so I’m resending a list of some of my favorite self-care habits.

Here are the things I do nearly every day to take good care of myself.

• Wake up grateful.
• Drink water – half my body weight in ounces.
• Leave space in my calendar between appointments.
• Look for one thing in nature that astonishes me.
• Find a way to let good enough be good enough.
• Smile.
• Start the week by looking at my calendar and changing any engagement that makes me groan.
• Spend time with interesting, curious people.
• Take a picture of something beautiful.
• Meditate.
• Move my body.
• Give away one thing I no longer love or need.
• Eat green vegetables.
• Go to bed at a reasonable hour.
• Do something helpful for someone else.
• Tell myself, “I love you, sweetheart,” throughout the day.
• Laugh.
• Say thank you. A lot.

There you have it – a handy self-care list. I’ll be back next week!

Love,
Cheryl
