“I have learned to prioritise myself,” – Funke Akindele advises women to prioritise self-care and mental well-being

Nollywood actress Funke Akindele has encouraged women to prioritise self-care and pay more attention to their overall well-being.

Taking to Instagram, the actress shared personal reflections about how she has learned over time that taking care of oneself is not selfish but necessary. According to her, she now makes her mental, physical, and spiritual health a priority.

Funke explained that self-care for her includes resting, praying, spending time at the spa or salon, and creating peace of mind for herself. She stressed that women often spend so much time caring for others that they forget to take care of themselves.

The actress advised women to show themselves love, kindness, and care, noting that they cannot continue pouring into others while feeling empty inside.

She also pointed out that self-care does not always require spending a lot of money. According to her, simple things like sleeping, resting, praying, or taking a walk can make a big difference.

Her message has since resonated with many fans online, with several women appreciating her reminder about the importance of personal well-being and balance.
