The 1% Secret That Changed How I See Self-Care

Are you good at doing something consistently?
Like… actually keeping a habit?

I wasn’t. To be honest, I am still not...


I’d get super motivated for three days, and then — poof! — it’s gone.


And every time, I’d feel disappointed in myself.

But one day, someone told me something that completely changed how I think about it.

You see, I always knew I wanted to take care of my body.
I knew what I “should” do — but life gets busy.
Between kids, work, and endless to-dos, it’s hard to put yourself first.

Even when we want to make time for self-care, it’s not always easy.


We’re tired, distracted, and time just slips away.

Then I heard this simple equation:

1 × 1.01³⁶⁵ = 37.78...

If you add 1% of what you already have every single day,
you’ll have 37 times more by the end of the year.

Think about that.


If you start with 1 euro, and each day you add 1% more of what’s already there,
by the end of the year, you’ll have 37 euros.

Pretty amazing, right? 💛

Now think about your body in the same way.
If you invest just 1% of your day—that’s about 15 minutes
your body’s “value” can grow 37× over the next year.

Fifteen minutes to breathe, stretch, or move in a way that feels good.


Fifteen minutes to reconnect with yourself.


It’s not about perfection — it’s about consistency and love.

And if 15 minutes feels too much right now, start smaller.


Start with something.


Even 5 minutes is 0.4% of your day —
and that’s enough to begin changing how your body feels.

Because small steps done with love and awareness always add up.


They compound, just like the 1% rule.


They don’t just change your body — they change your life.

If you’re not sure where to start,
I’ve created a gentle way to help you begin:
