10 Essential Daily Self-love Practices For Your Healing Journey

1. Meditation - being present with ourselves. Making time to set down the mental baggage we accumulate throughout each day reduces stress & improves our mental health over time.

2. Mindfulness - grounding ourselves in the now. The present moment is where we experience our deepest joy. We must love ourselves enough to lose our mind and come to our senses when our thoughts wander away from the now.

3. Breath - the essence of life. Consciously taking deep breaths throughout the day has a calming effect on the body & mind and stops shallow breathing which can induce stress.

4. Nature - reconnecting with ourselves. Immersing ourselves in nature is essential for our healing because it influences the subconscious to create peaceful thoughts. There is no wifi in nature, but we are guaranteed to find a better connection.

5. Rest - making time to do nothing. Living our lives by the clock takes its toll on the body and mind - this is why we need to make time to rest. Rest does not mean spending hours in front of screens - it means completely relaxing the body and mind.

6. Tribe - surrounding ourselves with positive people. We cannot hope to heal ourselves if we are surrounded by negativity, we must spend our time with those who support and nurture our growth. A hot air balloon can’t take flight if it’s tied to the weights on the ground.

7. Diet - what we feed the body & mind. We are what we eat, if we are consuming positive content we will manifest positive thoughts. If we feed ourselves healthy foods we will manifest better physical & mental health.

8. Exercise - letting the yang energy flow. Strenuous exercise such as running allows us to release yang energy, expressing this energy through the body helps us to let go of anger & resentment.

9. Bathing - taking care of the vessel. Cleaning our vessels regularly promotes physical health and is a form of self-love. A regular hygiene practice also promotes self-confidence.

10. Creativity - expressing ourselves without limits. Repressed emotions are a common cause of mental health challenges, allowing these emotions to be expressed through creativity prevents them manifesting as poor mental and physical health.

Healing ourselves starts with loving ourselves.

write me a love letter and seal it with a stolen kiss,

take my hand and lead me on an ethereal adventure,

write me a song and sing it under my window,

where my parents can’t see you.

press flowers and hide them in the pages of the books you give me,

write me a story and read it to me while we fall asleep,

paint me the sunrise on the day we met,

when everything was so much sweeter.

Make me believe in love again.

hollering at this so i can ignore the fact that they lost again 😭

sometimes the only closure you will get is knowing that everything you did was done earnestly and out of love

had a dream I went to a hozier concert and mr. hozier stopped singing and pointed to me in the crowd and asked me to go get him some extra crispy tofu and a blueberry shake for after the show and then the crowd passed his debit card to me and when I got it I could see his real legal name was Horace Bob-omb

i could be his controversially young girlfriend.. just sayin

that gray streak 🥹

There are two kinds of love in this world; one that makes you forget the life you live, and one that makes you want to live your life all over again.
