For today’s post, we are back exploring the relationships we have with ourselves.
From activities that physically feed our body and soul, to going inward, observing and perhaps adjusting our own narrative.

Journalling can be a great tool for exploring that narrative and reflecting on things past, present and future. You can find prompts online, or use the last slide in this post as topics to write about.

In today’s post we are highlighting the book ‘Pieces of the Puzzle’ by Tia Adamson.
We think this book could be a great tool in fostering self-love and so much more!

“This interactive book will guide you to becoming your authentic self by helping to set your intentions for each week using Monday Motivations. Pieces of the Puzzle will help you on journey of self-discovery, self-love and positive thinking. Each chapter provides you with the tools you need to become a better version of yourself, with guide journal entries at the end of each chapter to help you apply Pieces of the Puzzle to your everyday life.”

Look for it on Amazon & Kindle.

When you nurture self-love, you cultivate confidence, peace, and a deep sense of worth. Prioritizing yourself isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. Grow, heal, and pour into yourself first, because you are your own greatest love story.

We will be posting resources and exercises for practicing self love, so make sure you’re following along!

Conflict is a part of every relationship but how we handle it can either bring us closer or push us apart. Instead of approaching conflict with a ‘win or lose’ mindset or avoiding it altogether, collaboration allows us to work through challenges together.

This means listening with an open mind, valuing our partner’s perspective and finding solutions that strengthen our connection.

When we shift from ‘me vs. you’ to ‘us vs. the problem’ we create space for growth, trust and deeper understanding.

Last weeks post was about the benefits of mindfulness, but this week we're going to explore ways we can practice it in our every day lives.

There is no one-size fits all for mindfulness exercises. For some people being mindful can look like moments of silence and meditation, and for others it can look like taking a walk or listening to their favourite song. It's ok to try out different types of mindful activities until you find the ones that work best for you.

There are so many more ways to practice mindfulness than what is just in this post.
