Putting your welfare first is a non-negotiable, even when you’re going through an organizational change. You can’t pour from an empty cup. I’ve learned that lesson the hard way. There’s a magical power in saying, “no.” It’s not easy, but every time I’ve set a boundary, it made a world of difference in my outlook and my productivity! I started small - a sacred morning routine, a lunch break without emails. And you know what? The world didn't fall apart! Instead, I found myself showing up as a better, more centered version of me. Remember, self-care isn't selfish - it's your secret weapon in times of change.

During times of organizational change, staying connected with your support network is crucial for maintaining self-care. Regular check-ins with colleagues, mentors, or a coach can provide emotional support and practical advice, helping you navigate the uncertainty. It’s like having a group of friends during a hike—they help you stay on the path and keep your spirits up. Studies have shown that social support can reduce stress and improve resilience in challenging situations. By staying connected, you remind yourself that you’re not alone in the journey. After all, even the best navigators need a good co-pilot to read the map now and then!

Embracing flexibility in your self-care practices can help you adapt to the demands of organizational change without compromising your well-being. Instead of rigid routines, allow yourself the freedom to adjust your self-care activities based on your current needs and circumstances. It’s like swapping yoga for a quick dance party in your living room when time is tight—both get you moving, but one might just be a little more fun! Flexibility ensures that self-care remains a priority, even when your schedule is in flux. Research highlights that adaptable self-care routines are more sustainable in the long run. Remember, the key to navigating change is bending without breaking—like a good yoga pose!

I choose flexibility becouse the change will eventually come to all of us, if it's within your organization or within your personal life, adapting with the change, adjusting slef-care practices untill this change become the new routine for you and every thing else including self care practices will be adjusted accordingly This is not easy but can be achieved by developing below two skills: 1-be able to work out of your comfort zone, 2-gain the tolerance for working under high pressure

Adopt following approach during organization change: > Take self-feedback to check whether you are ready to take up the new opportunity or not. > If not, take small steps to align your self care practice to the new environment and adapt to the new culture. > Take regular guidance or mentorship from new company or other professional network.
