Do you practice self care? (lemmy.ml)

Hello. Let's talk about self-care. Who practices self-care regularly? I've been making an absolute effort to practice self-care, and it's definitely improving my mood. I floss, meditate, do qigong, breathwork, etc. Yes, flossing is self-care, take care of yo teefs. What does everyone do for self-care? Bonus question: Where else can I post questions besides Ask Lemmy?

Yeah, I mean, I:

Eat at least three times per day (breakfast, lunch and dinner)
Exercise three times per week (in the gym, lifting weights)
Sleep at least 7 or 8 hours per night
Go outside every day
Have a skincare routine (although it's not much)
Brush my teeth twice per day (after breakfast and before going to sleep)

I eat two massive meals per day, regularly walk stairs but not often, sleep at least until I hear something, go outside begrudgingly, wash my skin with a shower, and brush my beard every other day if I remember
