When you order yourself a selection of wellness goodies to try 🥰 .drinks & & .nootropics (this is not an Ad just me sharing my recent purchases ☺️)
It is so important to look after yourself, one of the many ways you can show up for yourself and show yourself that you are important is buy buying yourself things that will support you.
A gift to yourself 🎁
Now, that gift doesn’t always have to be something you purchase, it can be as sun as taking 5minutes to sit with a drink and just be, maybe in your garden 🪴 or just outside your home if you don’t have a garden (when I lived in a flat I used to go and sit on the steps out the front and drink my tea and watch the world) get some vitamin D, expand your vision and breathe deeply. It can be free, but it can also be something that you consciously choose to buy for yourself.
I am sharing this not to show you how much I have bought to show off or gloat (there’s my inner b**ch always ready to chip in 💁♀️🫣) but because I find it hard to buy myself anything that is actually for me and good for me. I was taught if it’s not necessary then don’t buy it, and that went for anything self-care related to.
I have consciously pushed against these ideas, thoughts and beliefs for a long time and I do now get my nails done regularly that is one of my luxuries of self-care (thank you they are always beautiful and it’s always great to catch up too!) At one time I used to have regular sports massages with to look after my body as I used to train 🏋️♀️ a lot, but recently both my own exercise routine and self-care have taken a sip. And I noticed because when this happened I don’t feel any where near as good as I could, I actually often don’t even feel like myself and I start to doubt myself.
So, this is my reminder to you, that you are important and you too deserve nice things be it a break or a physical gift 🎁
