"ME" TIME

Hey babes!!!

I think that it is absolutely fine and actually encouraged to be selfish sometimes. Running around all the time and never leaving time for yourself leads to stress and negative results all around. People won't like to be around you and it won't be good for them or yourself.

Therefore, even if you are an extremely busy person and enjoy being that busy, I am telling you TAKE A "ME" DAY.

And I don't mean a day to hang out with your friends or boyfriend or go shopping or something like that. Here is an outline of a good "ME" day that works for me and my interests. But of course, everyone is different! PS Pick a day that allows you to do this... no other responsibilities or requirements. Shut off your phone or alarms if you need to. 

Sleep in as late as you comfortably can and want to. - I am generally a pretty early riser but today 11 am was the right time for me to wake up

 Wake up slowly and take a long time to eat the breakfast that you want to! 

Take a bath and moisturize at your own pace - for me, taking a bath makes me feel fabulous like Marilyn Monroe on her good days and it also relaxes muscles and soaks your skin

Pamper yourself a litte! Nail makeover! Eyebrow care! Face masks! Do those little things you've been neglecting because you just 'didn't have enough time'

Read something interesting! I wanted to give myself time to properly enjoy my newest issue of Teen Vogue and will maybe start on a book that I've been neglecting

Watch your favorite movie or TV show  -for example, I watched my fave ep of The OC just to bring back some good memories

Write!!!  - WRITING is very therapeutic for me. Be it this blog post, in your private journal or get started or continue on that story you've been writing!

I know how easy it is to get caught up in the rush of your own daily schedule but I also know that you will THANK ME for pushing you into this. It will only do you good. And then you'll be excited to get busy again, replenished, re-theripized ... is that a word? ... and on top of the world. 

Because you're worth it!
