How to Make Meal Prep a Form of Self-Care

Meal prep can be much more than a time-saving tactic.

Done with intention, it becomes a weekly ritual that supports your mood, energy, and sense of control.

Think of it as a practical love letter to your future self.

Instead of racing through chopping and cooking, you create a gentle routine that nourishes both your plate and your peace of mind. When you approach meal prep as self-care, it stops feeling like a chore and starts feeling like a kindness.
