Every year on July 24th, the world celebrates International Self-Care Day, a powerful reminder that our health and well-being largely depend on ourselves. The date was not chosen at random; it symbolizes the need for self-care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
International Self-Care Day was established in 2011 by the International Self-Care Foundation (ISF) to promote self-care as a fundamental pillar of public health. Since then, it has gained international recognition, with the World Health Organization incorporating self-care into its health promotion strategies.
Self-care is the active and conscious care of ourselves—both physically and mentally. It includes all actions we take to maintain and improve our health: healthy nutrition, exercise, adequate sleep, stress management, disease prevention, and psychological resilience. In an era of speed, digital fatigue, and rising demands, self-care is not a luxury—it is a necessity. The benefits are numerous:
- • Improved physical and mental health
• Prevention of chronic diseases
• Enhanced productivity and concentration
• Reduced stress and emotional exhaustion
• Development of self-awareness and stronger self-image
International Self-Care Day is not just a yearly celebration—it is a call to daily action. It reminds us that in order to care for others, we must first care for ourselves. Self-care is not selfish; it is the most loving and responsible gift we can give ourselves.
