Self-care is any activity we do to take care of our mental, emotional, or physical health.<\/strong> It\u2019s buzzing among millennials, but who practices what they preach?<\/p>\n

We asked 2,000 Americans to find out.<\/strong>\"\"<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a lot going on in our day-to-day lives; <\/strong>how does self-care help people get through it? 82 percent said they practice self-care to reduce their stress or anxiety, while others use it to feel more positive and improve their physical and mental health.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Stereotypes say that self-care is geared toward women,<\/strong> but our respondents proved those wrong: Men and women are equally likely to practice self-care and consider it a necessity. They even spend the same amount of time on it every week \u2013 83 minutes on average.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Over half of respondents say that they\u2019ve seen or heard self-care mentioned on social media<\/strong> \u2013 and despite its reputation of doing more harm than good, that it has played a positive role in helping people take better care of themselves.<\/p>\n

While 50 percent of men say they\u2019ve seen self-care on social media as opposed to 40 percent of women,<\/strong> women are twice as likely to let it influence their practices.\"\"<\/p>\n

Methodology: Between June 14 and 17, 2019, we surveyed 2,004 Americans about their self-care habits. Respondents\u2019 ages varied between 18 and 87 with an average age of 37. 59 percent of respondents were female, 41 percent were male.<\/h6>\n
