I couldn't agree more, self love and kindness is so important x
We can sometimes get so engrossed in our work that we forget that we are humans, needing some nurture and self-care.
Modern science has produced a body of research showing that self-love and self-compassion are powerful career advancement tools that actually promote heart health, well-being and contribute to increased confidence, motivation and productivity.
It is thought that self-affirmations serve as cognitive expanders and broaden our perspective, allowing us to see more of our potential and career possibilities. Using kind self-talk, before a job challenge helps reduce anxiety and increases the likelihood of us excelling in our performance, and being compassionate with ourselves after a professional misstep, setback or failure, boosts our chances of rebounding! It has also been found that optimists who believe in themselves, climb the career ladder faster and farther than pessimists consumed with self-doubt.
So, as we dive back into work after our holidays, we invite you to be more loving to yourself in the workplace each day. Try mixing up a work love spritz with 100ml of Lavender Hydrolat, 10 drops Geranium, 5 drops Lavender and 15 drops Sweet Orange. Shake well and spritz your work area each morning with the intention of bringing love to yourself and your work. You could also spritz this whenever you are feeling that you need that loving intention, or whenever you leave your desk and then return!
