Just checking in. How are you beautiful?
Is it time to renew your daily self-care?
Where are you caring for yourself and where have you forgotten you?
Take a breath. Breath deeply into your soul. Breath deeply into the deepest part of you. Allow the stillness to settle.
Could you be kinder to yourself? Are you still putting yourself under pressure? Where could you allow more? Where could you slow down? Where could you be kinder to yourself?
What have you done this week just for you? Cultivating self-care can sometimes be something we push to the bottom of our to do list. We can sometimes give it less importance than all those chores we suddenly find so important.
Remember how important you are too.
Forgive yourself if you only tend to your needs when everything else has been ticked off the list. Forgive yourself if you feel you are not worthy or deserving.
Its time to give yourself some attention. Its time to allow yourself to receive self-care too. That means accepting you for all that you are, treating yourself with the compassion you heap onto others.
Focus on your needs. Focus inwards. Listen. What would give you joy in this moment? What would bring pleasure to your day? What stops you from following this desire? Can you silence the voice of your inner critic and focus on your own pleasure? You deserve this.
Hold your hand to your heart
Bless yourself for all your past mistakes, remember your triumphs.
Bless yourself and the actions you’ve taken, the decisions you made that bring you to now.
Bless the woman you have been, the woman you are now and the woman you aspire to be.
Bless yourself for allowing yourself the time to read this message.
Bless yourself for the time you give yourself for these messages to land
Bless yourself for your strength and resilience
Bless all the parts of you of you that make you you
Some journaling for you to consider to support your self-care practices. Just fill in the words where there is a question mark. Allowing whatever words need to flow. Afterwards when there are no more words to come, have a look at what you have written and go back to my questions.
- Self-care means what?
- I feel nurtured when?
- I feel out of control when?
- I need more of something in my life
- The favourite way to spend my day is?
- What is stopping me from practicing self-care daily
- I feel happy at home when?
- What will help me to overcome obstacles stopping my self care
- The best time to practice my self-care is?
Is it time to renew your self-care? What changes are you going to make?
Love, acceptance and self-care is your birth right.
Much love
