July 24th is International Self-Care Day, an annual opportunity to spotlight the value of self-care practices, and the approaches people use every day to prevent illness and maximize their health. This day was established in 2011 to raise awareness of the importance of self-care and provide people with the knowledge and ability on how to be active participants in their own wellness.

This can be anything from healthy eating and good hygiene to practicing lifestyle habits that prevent disease to maintaining good mental and physical health.
