Nothing on this list requires a subscription, a product, or a Pinterest board. Just you, 10 minutes, and permission to actually use them.

This is for you if...

Self-care sounds great but you honestly don't know where to start.

You keep telling yourself you'll rest after the next thing gets done.

You're tired of wellness advice that feels like more homework.

You want something real and doable, not aspirational and exhausting.

You need a reminder that tending to yourself is not selfish, it's survival.

I made this because the world is a lot right now, and most self-care advice asks you to do more. This guide asks you to do less, and to mean it.

I'm Mara Glatzel, coach, author of Needy: How to Advocate for Your Needs and Reclaim Your Sovereignty, and host of the Even Here, Even Now podcast.

I've spent years helping people stop abandoning themselves. This is the simplest place to start.
