[00:00:00] Speaker A: Yo, what's up fam? Riley Hart here, coming at you live with another dose of self care. Truth bombs on Self Care rx. You know how it is, right? We're constantly hustling, scrolling and trying to keep up with the ever spinning hamster wheel of life. Ever feel like your energy levels are permanently stuck on low battery? Like your body is screaming for a break but you're too busy binge watching that new show everyone's talking about? Yeah, me too. But here's the self care ain't just bubble baths and avocado toast. It's about knowing your limits, prioritizing your well being, and actually seeing the progress you're making. Today we're diving deep into how to track your physical self care like a boss. Because let's face it, if you can't measure it, you can't manage it, right? First up, ditch that all or nothing mentality. I know, I know you're thinking Riley. Self care is supposed to be an epic cleanse, a total reset. But trust me, small consistent steps are the real MVPs. Instead of aiming for a complete lifestyle overhaul, which usually ends in burnout, focus on incorporating tiny habits that actually stick. Think walking for 15 minutes instead of hitting snooze three times, swapping that sugary drink for water, or getting seven hours of sleep. You know the stuff that feels doable even on a Monday morning. Next up, get real with your food journal. I'm not talking about calorie counting here, fam. That's a straight up recipe for disaster. Instead, think about it as mindful eating. What are you actually craving? When are you feeling hungry versus bored? How does certain food make you feel afterwards? This isn't about judgment, it's about awareness. Write it down, analyze it, and see if there are any patterns that can help you fuel your body better. Speaking of fueling, hydration is the ultimate superpower. But seriously, how many times have we all forgotten to drink water? You know what I'm talking about. Scrolling through TikTok for hours only to realize your throat feels like sandpaper. Download a water reminder app or set alarms throughout the day. Trust me, your body will thank you later. And yeah, it might feel awkward at first, but hey, we're all rebels here, right? Remember that feeling when you finally hit your daily step goal and you're like yass queen, I crushed it. That's the power of tracking progress. Use a fitness tracker or simply a good ol notebook to log those squats, that yoga session, that dance off in your living room, whatever moves your body. Seeing those numbers climb can be seriously motivating and remind you just how far you've come. Okay, real talk. Imagine this. You're crushing your fitness goals, eating clean and sleeping like a log. But then you scroll through Instagram and see everyone else seemingly living their best lives effortlessly fit, sipping on green smoothies and taking sunset yoga classes. It's easy to get caught in that comparison trap, right? Don't fall for it. Remember, social media is a curated highlight reel, not real life. Focus on your own journey, celebrate your wins no matter how small and keep pushing forward. You got this. Listen up fam, because I'm about to drop some serious truth bombs. Self care ain't selfish, it's self respect. And taking care of your physical well being is a non negotiable part of that equation. So ditch the excuses, grab your water bottle and get moving. Trust me, your future self will thank you for it. Hit me up on Instagram Riley hartpodcast and share your biggest self care wins. Don't forget to rate, review and subscribe.
