Now more than ever, it’s important to treat yourself.
Treating yourself means doing something good and pleasurable for yourself that isn’t something of necessity. It is something you do just for the enjoyment of it! A good example is treating yourself to an ice cream, you do this just for the pleasure as there is really no reason to eat the ice cream (especially in this weather)! When we give ourselves treats, we feel energized, cared for and contented which improves our self-control, helping us to maintain our healthy habits. Studies have shown that people who gave themselves a treat in the form of receiving a surprise gift or watching a funny video, gained in self-control. To clarify, a treat is not a reward. A reward must be earned or justified whereas a treat is a small pleasure or indulgence that we give to ourselves just because we want it. We don’t have to be “good” or “achieve” anything to get it. Another great benefit of treating yourself is for your mental health. If you are suffering from depression or other mental health issues, self-care and treating yourself is an essential part of healing. Depression involves toxic thoughts and self-torture and sometimes taking the time to be kind yourself can help alleviate these thoughts for a while. There are also many ways to treat yourself that don’t involve going out and buying a Lamborghini just to feel better. Take a walk, get in touch with nature, learn a new craft, buy a plant, spend time with animals, cook a special meal.
