The Power of Self-Care in Chaotic Times

The Power of Self-Care in Chaotic Times: Why Disconnecting Matters More Than Ever

The political landscape in the United States is shifting at a dizzying pace. In just a short span of time, Donald Trump has signed a flood of executive orders, making sweeping changes that will impact trade, international relations, and daily life. With new tariffs being imposed on China, Canada, and Mexico, the economic ripple effects are sure to be felt across industries and households alike. It’s overwhelming, it’s exhausting, and for many of us, it’s infuriating.

That’s exactly the point.

The Chaos Strategy: Why It’s Meant to Break You Down

Trump’s approach to governance is one of controlled chaos. By bombarding the public with a constant stream of executive actions and policy shifts, he keeps people disoriented, exhausted, and unable to process any one thing fully before the next wave hits. This strategy isn’t just about policy—it’s about psychological warfare. If we’re too overwhelmed to respond, if we stop paying attention, then power can consolidate unchecked. And that, queens, is exactly what we must resist.

The Balance Between Awareness and Sanity

Staying informed is crucial, but so is protecting your peace. The world doesn’t need you burnt out and broken—it needs you powerful and prepared. That means striking a balance between being engaged and knowing when to step back. Here’s how:

• Set Information Boundaries: Choose specific times during the day to check the news. Don’t let the 24-hour cycle dictate your mental state.

• Incorporate Rituals of Self-Care: Whether it’s slipping into luxurious Queens Wear Robes here, sipping a cup of tea, or indulging in a skincare routine, make space for things that ground you.

• Curate Your Social Media Feed: Follow sources that inform but don’t drain you. Engage with discussions that uplift, not just outrage.

• Move Your Body: Stress settles in the body. Whether it’s yoga, a walk, or dancing in your robe, movement releases tension.

• Prioritize Rest: Sleep is resistance. A well-rested mind is sharp, clear, and ready to engage strategically.

Looking Away vs. Looking Smart

There’s a difference between intentional disconnection and willful ignorance. The former allows you to recharge; the latter lets the chaos strategy win. Queens don’t disengage—we recalibrate. We stay present, but on our own terms.

So, take that bubble bath. Wrap yourself in a robe that makes you feel like royalty. Read, rest, and laugh. Then, when you’re ready, return to the conversation with clarity and purpose.

The system is designed to exhaust you, but you don’t have to play by its rules. Protect your mind, nourish your soul, and reign with wisdom.
