Hello beautiful! In today’s episode we are talking about self-care! We all know the saying "you can't pour from an empty cup," meaning that you can't give your best to others if you aren't looking after yourself. It sounds great in theory, but for many of us, it is much harder to do in practice. We often don't give ourselves permission, space, or the time to self-care because we feel guilty or shame or think that it's a sign of selfishness.
But there are so many reasons why we should ensure that we are looking after ourselves physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. In this episode, I'm sharing 12 reasons why self-care helps us in every aspect of our lives and then giving you 25 ways in which you can show up and do it. Every tip can be done in as little as 5 minutes, so there is no reason, or excuses for you not to step right up and start spreading the love today.
Self care IS self-love. If you haven't been practicing self care, it is time to start. If you have found yourself caught up in a cycle of self abuse and self-hatred, these simple little steps will lead you back to where you belong; a place of love and acceptance.
This episodes quote comes from Lori Deschene, creator of Tiny Buddha, a website sharing simple wisdom for complex lives. It resonants with me as I think how often we are so negative, mean and vicious towards ourselves, and somehow expect good things to come out os such toxic behaviour.
“We can't hate ourselves into a version of ourselves we can love.” Lori Deschene
Self care is the way we change our own narrative and begin to create the version of who we want to be, by loving ourselves right here, right now.
