Oak & Sixth offers a number of helpful articles, interactive digital books that will keep you on track, ideas and tips on how to have the best self-care Sunday ever.
A little about me
There was a time in my life when I needed someone checking on me every day, to make sure I was taking time for myself. My friends were there when I needed them the most. I was in the mindset where I thought I should only do Self-Care when I get to a breaking point. Self-Care is not a luxury but a priority to bring balance and wellness. I want to be that friend for YOU. I’ll be that reminder.

Behind the Name
Wanted my blog name to mean something to me, it took so long to pick a name but when this came into my head I knew that was it. No guessing. What is the one thing you think of when you think Self-Care? If you are like me you will probably think of Home. Think of a relaxing time you had at your own house. Oak and Sixth are the first two street names I lived on when I first married my husband. So those two words are very special to me. I hope Oak and Sixth will be special for you as well. A place you can come and relax, just like home.
