Self-Care Practices Tailored to You

Posted by Amelia Goff on

A quick guide based on your personality type

This month, we’re focusing on all things self-care — because it’s essential to take time to nourish your body, mind and soul amidst our busy days and weeks.

But here’s the thing: self-care isn’t one-size-fits-all. What feels like bliss to one person might feel completely draining to another. In our fast-paced, always-on world, knowing what you truly need can make all the difference.

Whether you’re wired to connect, create or recharge solo — the most powerful self-care comes when it’s tailored to your personality.

 

Here’s a quick guide to help you uncover what self-care might look like for you.


For the Thinker

Analytical, logical, and often in their own heads.
Your self-care thrives in quiet, mentally stimulating spaces.

Try: Journaling, solo walks, strategic podcasts, or making skincare your daily moment of mindfulness.
Tip: Structure your routine with pockets of calm that give your mind space to settle.


For the Extrovert

Social, lively, fuelled by connection.
You feel your best when surrounded by others.

Try: Group workouts, infrared sauna dates with friends, or skincare nights with your inner circle.
Tip: Let your self-care energise you — shared rituals are still deeply restorative.

 

Self care

 

For the Empath

Intuitive, sensitive, and deeply affected by their environment.
Your nervous system needs soothing and space to reset.

Try: Magnesium baths, calming facials, aromatherapy, or gentle breathwork.
Tip: Schedule alone time after busy periods — you’ll feel the difference instantly.


For the Achiever

Driven, focused, always setting goals.
You need to see results — even in your downtime.

Try: Tracking skincare progress with photos, goal-based wellness routines, protein-rich meals and recovery facials.
Tip: Rest days are just as productive — healing supports performance.


For the Nurturer

Supportive, caring, often putting others first.
You need rituals that give you back the care you give to others.

Try: Slow nature walks, warm oil massages, herbal teas and grounding skincare routines.
Tip: Keep your rituals gentle and nourishing — something you genuinely enjoy, not another thing to tick off.


As we shift toward a more holistic view of wellness, we're seeing trends that support this tailored approach — from low-impact movement like Pilates and coastal walks, to unplugged time in nature, and an increasing demand for clean, non-toxic skincare.

Ultimately, the best self-care is the kind that feels good to you. Whether you need more calm, more structure, more connection — give yourself permission to lean in and the time to dedicate to this. Remember: everything is connected. When you take time to slow down, rebalance and realign, your nervous system follows… and your skin reflects it.
