Start your self-care journey
In a world where we’re constantly pouring into others—our families, our careers, our ministries—it’s easy to overlook the most important vessel of all: ourselves. At MsRae Essentials, my mission is to help women slow down, reconnect with God, and create a life that feels peaceful, purposeful, and balanced.
That’s why inside the Purposeful Peace Self-Care Planner, you’ll find one of my favorite tools: the Self-Care Assessment. This powerful reflection activity helps you check in with yourself, identify what areas need a little more love, and celebrate the areas where you’re already thriving.
Today, I’m excited to walk you through the assessment—and gift you a free downloadable PDF so you can try it for yourself!
Why a Self-Care Assessment?
So many women want to practice self-care but don’t know where to begin. With daily responsibilities pulling you in every direction, it can feel overwhelming to figure out what you actually need.
The Self-Care Assessment gives you clarity by breaking self-care into key areas such as:
- Emotional Wellness
- Spiritual Wellness
- Physical Wellness
- Mental Wellness
- Social Wellness
- Rest & Relaxation
- Lifestyle & Environment.
Instead of guessing, the assessment helps you pause and honestly reflect on where you feel strong—and where you’ve been running on empty.
How It Works
You’ll rate statements in each category on a simple scale. This helps you understand:
- What areas feel balanced
- What areas may need more attention
- Where you can start making small, meaningful changes
There’s no “right” or “wrong” score. The Self-Care Assessment is all about awareness, not comparison.
And the best part? You can revisit the assessment anytime you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or ready to create a fresh plan for yourself.
What Your Results Tell You
Your scores give you a snapshot of your current self-care habits. Many women discover:
✨ They’re stronger in some areas than they realized
✨ They’ve been neglecting themselves in ways they didn’t notice
✨ They finally understand why they’ve been feeling tired, stressed, or unmotivated
✨ They feel empowered to make changes—with grace, not guilt
Inside the planner, there’s also space to reflect, journal, and create a personalized self-care plan based on your results.
Faith + Self-Awareness
As women of faith, we know that caring for ourselves is also a way of honoring the God who created us. Scripture reminds us:
“Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.” — 3 John 1:2
Self-care isn’t selfish. It’s stewardship. When your body, mind, and spirit are cared for, you show up as the woman God designed you to be.
