Self-Care Checklist

Self-care sure isn’t a topic that is foreign to anyone reading this. Not only it is a catchy hashtag for social media, but there are tons of podcasts, TED talks, and books on how important self-care is. Don’t let the trendy aspect deter you from it bring a priority. There is most definitely a reason it remains a hot topic.

We are no different, in that it is something that is a recurring practice in our life. We both know the importance of self-care, especially after having our business that we ran 24/7, and finally ended in 2017, to save our lives, literally. We were suffering from burnout that included severe fatigue and had zero self-care practices since we were putting everything we had into our business; there was nothing left over for us. Hindsight, we could have put mechanisms into place that reduced the burnout, but in the middle of a hurricane, there is hardly a logical moment to think of how to prepare- that is why it is important to prepare before the storm.  

Lessons are learned from hard times, right? We are thankful for the experiences we have gone through, as they make us who we are today- stronger individuals, and even stronger couple.

Arner Adventures has always been a way of life for us that includes, not only the physical adventures we have with travel and experiences, but also our journey through this life together, which includes self-care so that we may enjoy it.

We thought we would share a self-care checklist that you can either use as a guide for ways you can practice self-care or use it as a guide to create your own.

When we feel off center, we recognize and honor that we may have to re-adjust the checklist, or items on the list. Sometimes, areas for self-care seem to take a priority over others, and that is one of the beautiful aspects of this practice. There are no rules when it comes to self-care, except to only have matters that warm your heart, care for your body, and nurture your soul. No matter what you have going on right now, please take the time to practice self-care. We hope this was a helpful start for you if it is something you have not considered for your life. Let us know ways you practice self-care.

About arneradventures

Hi, we are Shannon and Gerry Arner, and our rescue, fur baby, Betty White. After owning our own business, working 24/7, we made a lifestyle change and decided to make the most out of life. We sold our house, downsized, and moved to the coast. We are wanderlusters; we live life minimally, but fully. We live each day as an adventure, and enjoy sharing them with you!

    ☺ Gotcha! Glad you’re able to find other items on the list to practice self-care.

    Out of your list I realize I don’t do, but should do at least 7 things. One of those things – swim in the ocean – I will never do. Too many scary things in those waters.

"No human race is superior; no religious faith is "No human race is superior; no religious faith is inferior. All collective judgments are wrong. Only racists make them.” - Elie Wiesel

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. This memorial in Miami was developed by a small group of Holocaust survivors in 1984, who wanted a place to memorialize those who did not survive. The sculpture, created by Kenneth Treister, is in memory of the six million Jews who perished at the hands of the Nazis.

"NEVER SHALL WE FORGET. The totality of the Holocaust cannot be created in stone and bronze ...but I had to try. The rich diversity of the European culture, now lost, cannot be expressed ... but I had to try. The murder of one and one half million children whose joys turned to sorrow suddenly on September 1, 1939, when World War 11 broke out, cannot be sculpted... But I had to try. Six million moments of death cannot be understood.... But we must all try." - Kenneth Treister

We make very attempt to keep our cleaning eco-frie We make very attempt to keep our cleaning eco-friendly. #AD While we make a lot of our cleaning products, we also love the convenience of having a product that we align with. That is @pathosans
🌎
We've been using two of their product - (1) PathoPure Cleaner and (2) PathoNex Disinfectant. 
🌎

🤎PathoPure thoroughly cleans countertops floors, etc. It's easy to grab and clean up a mess in a pinch. 
🤎 PathoNex is what we use in the bathroom, or any other area where we need to concentrate on sanitizing and disinfecting. This is a hospital broad-spectrum disinfectant, kills 99.9% of bacteria including the virus that causes covid-19.

Both are super easy to use, but best of all, they are safe for us and for Betty White 🐾 

Other benefits - 
☑️Fragrance-free 
☑️ No dilution, mixing, or rinsing
☑️ No gloves required 
☑️Drain & disposal friendly
