The Four Self-Care Domains

Physical: Sleep, nutrition, movement, and basic health maintenance form the foundation. Without these, other self-care efforts have limited impact. Emotional: Processing stress, setting emotional limits, and engaging in activities that restore psychological energy. Social: Maintaining meaningful relationships and having connection without over-extending. Practical: Environmental order, routine, and financial basics — the scaffolding that reduces daily cognitive load.
