What have i been doing to feel better?
Something I don't think I'll ever be quiet about is the way that every day feels different for me, i don't think i can ever predict how i'll feel the next day but these are some of the little habits that have made me feel a little bit better recently.
1 - Taking Time - This is something that is very important to me, something that has allowed me to find what areas of my life i have been neglecting. So recognising that I need time to fully rest, recover and ultimately, glow up.
2 - Making Time - Finding the time can be difficult, so blocking out time for myself has been so helpful, recognising what i need and when i need it and actually making time. This is usually on my work days when i get home, i spend a little extra time unwinding when i have a day off the next day, so that i can sleep as long as i want, which usually isn't longer than 7-8 am anyway. On Sundays, just before work, is THE perfect time for a sunday reset, orrrr a sunday snooze.
3 - Self Care - Being a girl comes with its cost, for me at least, if i don't feel like i look my best, then i know i won't walk with my head up high, talk with confidence and ultimately, i will end up comparing and bringing myself down.
My self care routine may be different to yours but it has 5 core elements - Aesthetics, health, movement, nutrition and environment.
If you look good, you'll feel good, if you feel good, you'll move good, if you move good then you'll eat good and once you're in bed with a clean and happy environment, then you'll know you did good.
With that said, work with what you've got. My brain won't always allow me to get on with taking time or even making time for all of my self care but its all about trying, its not about doing it 10 days in a row if that's not what consistency means to you, if it means 10 times in a month or in 2 weeks then thats more than enough to reward with a lil treat xxxx
