It is time to pamper yourself by taking good care. The importance of self-love is valuing your self-worth.
If certain changes to your lifestyle could boost your self-love then go for it.
SPOILER: You Only Live Once !
Before we dig straight into the self-care ideas know one thing.
Feel loved by loving yourself.
Is it that easy? You have no idea how much!
Because life’s too short for not falling for yourself.
I learnt the hard way that why loving yourself must be your most important life priority.
After losing my dad, I saw the changing attitudes of many.
I saw who actually cares. It used to affect me but stopped when I began taking care of myself.
I became my best friend & You can be your best friend too.
P.S. If you want to look at your inner self then know yourself fully. If you are interested in journaling then I have been working on a self-discovery journal available on amazon. Analyze your life, self-reflect and self–discover your hidden potential. If you are someone who wants to connect with the inner self then you will love the deep prompts in this journal. Life is short, thus why not have the best out of little moments!
Now, Let’s dive straight into self love ideas:
Self Love Practice #1: Mindful Eating
Do you ditch the idea of healthy eating and throw whatever you see into your mouth?
This attitude in turn shapes one into a fairly unhealthy and youthful individual.
At this point, a complaint wavers on one’s lips . . . why am I getting OUT OF SHAPE?
The answer lies in the lack of self-awareness.
- Choose the right diet instead of grabbing food like a starved individual in famine. Monitor your mouth.
- Put the brakes on your eating at moments when feeling stressed, anxious, or overexcited. WHY? Because it’s easy to lose awareness of what is going on in your body, how hungry you feel, and what the best food is for you at that time.
- Drink about 3 liters of water daily for cleaning your body and eliminating the toxins. Examine the oil . avoid hemp oil.
- As it will add most of the fatty acids inside your body (omega-3 and omega-6)
- Make sure to always have leafy Greens veggies in every meal of yours whether it be cabbage, spinach, lettuce.
- Sprinkle a bit of parsley and watercress over your food. you will get the sparkle of minerals and vitamins surely visible onto your face.
- Feeling low about your living situation? You will feel so better to snack on seeds as the zinc and sunflower seeds boost energy to a whole new level.
- Replace white items with brown whether it be sugar, bread, or rice. As brown items are more healthy and cleansing for your immune system.
