This is a simple but a difficult question because I don't regard this acts as self care I just do it personally as means of survival or for self love. Before we can learn to embrace others and love others we must first understand ourself and learn to love ourselves clearly. I often make sure to avoid anything that may cause trouble or problems to me.

My First and most important self care routine is that I make sure I eat early and also eat nourishing meal. I don't joke with food even though I look tall an lanky, I am a food lover, there are some specific type of meals that I classify as my favorite, over is an understatement for this meals, I am so much obsessed with this meals, that I make sure I taste one of them weekly.
Another self routine I observed is that, I often make sure I sleep more often especially when I am tired of bothered over something, I noticed sleep often reduce stress from me and I often feel alive when I wake up from this sleeps either afternoon or night sleep. This is one reason I don't like being woken up for unnecessary or stupid reasons, because I often keep to time on everything even during my sleeping hours.
I person engage in exercise almost everyday but at least 3 times a week. I jog once or twice a week because I am not burning fat I am only for fitness. And I engage in general exercises like press up, push up, seat up to gain physical fitness and body agility, it is not easy to engage in this because it takes patience, agility, endurance and discipline to engage in this. I had often been a fan of basketball and I don't joke with basketball so I engage myself on weekends to play basketball and other sports I love doing.

I often try to Avoid difficult Conversations. If I ever noticed some is acting weird towards me or angry at me, I avoid this type of concerns or conversation from my head because my mental health matters a lot to me than any other thing the most. When i mean difficult conversations i mean conversations that will make someone to be worried and think about his or her life if he is wrong or right.
I barely notice all this things as a self care or self love because I grown to embrace myself and correct myself on so many mistakes I make either when I was very young or growing up. I make sure i adjust myself to everything at my own comfort abilities not even looking or caring about what other people might think about me, my self love grew even more stronger when i had a heartbreak, it became more serious and complex.
