Self-Care 🤌

Tonight on our weekly Focus Founder Accelerator call, we discussed an important topic:

Self-care.

As ADHD entrepreneurs, it's all too common that we hustle and grind our way into burnout. We think it's more important to spend every possible moment working.

And worse still, we regret or feel guilty about taking time off when we finally do get a break.

So tonight, we asked everyone what their favorite self-care routine is, and why. Because self-care is a secret to being a more productive and happier entrepreneur.

Here are some of the answers we got:

@Reema Rana

cooks herself a meal to show herself some love. She really enjoys cooking for others, and cooking for herself is a way to show herself that same graciousness.

@Sebastian Schroeder

loves to take time for unstructured meditation. Time to let his mind wander and the answers he seeks to find him.

@Rainbow Bird de Soliris

takes time to stretch every morning, and especially enjoys xis muscle hook.

@Matthew O'Brien

neglected self-care for 10 years, and recently found that taking care of himself by grayscaling his phone, turning on night-time mode on his computer at night, and taking creatine have all helped him to have more in reserves at the end of the day - and make him a more pleasant person to be around (his words hehe).

@Brian Diep

enjoys exercise in the first hour of his day, and finds that when he sticks to this routine it sets the rest of his day up for success.

@Mahedi Kaiser

loves lifting weights and using his muscles to get in his body.

And my personal favorite?

@Nancy Burditt

loves saying "NO!" to things that don't serve her. Saying no to more things allows her free time to spend with herself, reading books or doing whatever she wants to do.

Me?

I love to care for myself by getting movement. Just like

@Mark X

who is a huge advocate for joyous movement, things like going for a walk, riding my bike, yoga, lifting, and practicing handstands all bring me massive joy and make my body (and brain) feel really good.
