I love the fact that you said you take times out of your day to sit, reflect, and do nothing. To follow your ~ing to reconnect with your emotions and feelings. Often times we go through the motions without even taking time to breathe and ask ourselves, are we really enjoying this?
THIS IS WONDERFUL!

So wise. So obvious. I love your belief more than anything. I’m in this process myself at the moment butas I say “at the moment” I really think this is no quick fix, this needs to be a lifelong affirmation. I will keep this advice and read it often. I’ll even practise it with my own mantra.

Self-Love could be the most important thing to living a full and happy life. I am so happy to see this issue being addressed in a community that attracts so many women in so many age groups. As women, especially, we tend to make choices, that aren’t always conscious, about putting others before ourselves. Culturally we are sent messages that women are the world’s caretakers and that being kind means being selfless and putting others first. While this is a wonderful message, we need to be reminded that we deserve that too! We should be caring and loving ourselves first so we can be that much more authentic in our love and care for others.

I love this article. I have been focusing on just me for a little bit now and I love it. Something I have started again is reading, taking 30 minutes out of my hectic senior year schedule to read and relax. I have never felt so refreshed after focusing on soley me.
