Feel Good, 7/24 The International Self-Care Day (ISD) worldwide campaign objective is to celebrate the importance of self-care and to encourage the general public to practice responsible self-care.  The International Self-Care Day, 24 July, symbolizes that the benefits of self-care are experienced 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In other words, the benefits of self-care are life-long and do not just relate to a single day.  View Homewood Health's Self-Care Starter Kit below to identify some new ways you can practice self-care on a regular basis.
