The Ultimate Self-Care Checklist: Simple Daily Habits to Boost Your Mood & Well-Being

Life gets busy, and it’s easy to take care of everything and everyone except yourself. But true wellness starts with small moments of intention. That’s why having a simple self-care checklist can give your mind and body the gentle reset they need.

This post walks you through a beautifully designed checklist created for Cherrae Essentials—a guide you can follow daily to reconnect with your peace, energy, and inner balance.

Why a Self-Care Checklist Works

A checklist helps you:

• Stay consistent

• Reduce stress

• Create healthy daily routines

• Avoid burnout

• Make space for mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being

It’s not about doing everything perfectly. It’s about showing up for yourself with love.

What’s Inside the Checklist

Here are a few of the steps included in the printable PDF:

✔ Drink water
✔ Stretch or move your body for a moment
✔ Practice gratitude
✔ Sit with a calming scent (lavender, eucalyptus, wintergreen, etc.)
✔ Set one intention for the day
✔ Take a mindful breath
✔ Release something that’s been weighing on you

Each step is simple but powerful—and together, they help nurture a calmer, healthier you.

How to Use the Checklist

You can keep it:

• On your bathroom mirror

• In your journal

• On your desk

• In your wellness binder

• Inside your planner

Check off items throughout the day or use it as a morning ritual.

If you use Cherrae Essentials aromatherapy oils, you can pair each section with a scent—like lavender for calm, wintergreen for energy, or frankincense for grounding.
