Self L O V E

What does self care mean to you ? As I work day in and day out with over a dozen woman a week, I ask this question, and I am overwhelmed by the response !

One thing that stands true, its lacking a lot of LOVE. Outside image is a reflection of the inside; how do you feel about yourself ?

In response I share a variety of suggestions and scenarios of how my clients can devote time to themselves.

I.E. A deep conditioner, a face mask, a nap, even a mani/pedi sesh could do the job !

Oh how the possibilities are endless when you give yourself dedicated "you time."

In the month of February all the attention is thrust on the couples that are total #Goals on social media, We even have your finger flicking, bad ass woman that "don't need no man to love them,"

However, regardless of where you lie there... it really boils down to the YOU in that situation. If you're wanting all the attention of your partner in intimacy, or a stranger during your night out with the gals, it's you that must be taken care of, so that youuuu cannn show up. (Snaps fingers!)

Your glow...will show !

Go back and read that, over and over until it clicks.

I have been in a committed relationship for years now, and trust me I have gotten lost in the push and pull of "Babe do I look good? vs " I feel good, tenerrr neeehh nurrrr, so good, so good !"

I get it...but lets work on changing that narrative and start putting that in priority.

Once a week, I dedicate a slice of time to myself. Because we're all busy GirlBosses, I am sure you can all appreciate what I am about to say "I cram in as much self LOVE as I can!!"

As time has passed, I've gotten better and better at dedicating this time to myself but, often that time slips through my fingers and I have to sprinkle that self love throughout the week.

I'll take an Epson salt bath after a long day at work then jump straight into bed ! Or I'll wear a mask while I read bedtime stories to my son.

YOU CAN DO IT TOO <3

When time has slowed down just enough...I fully indulge in every area of self care ;) Shower time may take a little longer but I come out energized and could be set for some time that week.

To be environmentally conscious, I often turn off the water and deforest, while my hair conditions. Sometimes I even one up myself and throw on a face mask .

Depending on my mood that day I'll give myself that time to just soak. I have a variety of 'em to chose from.

One can be strictly business, healing in sorts. While others can be fun and aromatic.

With my bath tray I'll even keep a snack, a beverage, and a sort of essential oils near by.

This one is made of bamboo and has the coolest feature; behind where the wine glass, that is held in place by slide in feature. There is a circular cut out... well behind that is a place holder for tablets or phones and it acts as a acoustic speaker.

Ahhh, its my favorite part; listening to podcast or a new album at full attention, while I soak and enjoy !
