Is Self-Care Selfish? | Dr. Meghana Dikshit

Is self-care selfish? This is a question many of us grapple with, especially in a world that often equates selflessness with virtue. It's essential to understand that self-care isn't about indulgence or self-centeredness-it's about survival. The World Health Organization has even established global guidelines on self-care interventions to emphasize its importance for our health and well-being. Self-care is about filling your own glass first, so you have the strength and resources to support others. It encompasses all activities that keep you mentally, emotionally, physically, socially, and spiritually healthy. From getting enough sleep and regular exercise to enjoying moments of solitude and faith in a higher power, these are not luxuries but necessities for a balanced life.
Prioritizing self-care means making a conscious effort to assess your needs, identify stressors, and develop strategies to manage them. It can be as simple as scheduling time for yourself, incorporating fun activities into your daily routine, or connecting with loved ones regularly. Remember, taking care of yourself leads to improved physical health, enhanced emotional and mental well-being, stronger relationships, and increased self-worth. By recognizing that only you are responsible for your well-being, you embrace the philosophy that self-care is self-love. So, let's redefine self-care not as selfishness but as a commitment to living a balanced and fulfilling life.
