Self Care Check In August 2026

Before I start this self care check in, I completely forgot about my blog’s anniversary on the 27th. I have been blogging for 13 years and that is just crazy to me. I honestly forgot about it and it just came to me the other day when I saw a rewind post on here. I know I’ve said in the past that I kept the promise to not give up on this but I feel like there should be a time to start slowing down on things and backing off when things aren’t working out. I mean I know you shouldn’t give up on your dreams but when you have exhausted all avenues and it is not working, what do you do? More on that later but cheers to 13 years of Naturalle Drea.

Okay so about self care this month……. it was pretty much non existent. This month was a lot for me mentally being super overwhelmed with a lot from the workplace to home to creator stuff. I have been in my head a lot and of course my usual go to is music and silent car rides but it just didn’t feel like enough. I have been in my journal more and putting a lot of thoughts in there which honestly has been helpful. I guess this was just an off month for me which is fine, we have them sometimes and will bounce back.

I’m still on the journey to find my way into intentional self care and practicing it every week and doing more for myself. I am deserving of it.
