Accessible Self-Care Practices For Everyone.
Here are just 10 of many self-care ideas that we can all try, practice, and implement as they feel nourishing and supportive for us.
Practicing Self-Compassion
What it is, how it works, and why we should all implement it into our daily lives.
On Shame
Shame thrives off of secrecy. It grows and flourishes when we keep it hidden in the dark. It easily sneaks its way into our day-to-day lives when we ignore it. When we feel ashamed of our shame, it amplifies and gets heavier.
Feeling Our Feelings
How mindfulness and self-compassion can support us in allowing room for the tougher feelings.
Inner Worth
We cannot buy or prove or hustle or hate our way towards loving and nourishing ourselves. We cannot start from the outside in and expect to find what we're seeking. We cannot attain inner transformation from things outside of ourselves.
On Setting Boundaries
Setting boundaries is hard—especially for people-pleasers. We often learn that our worth is tied up in what we have to offer or give others. We might fear being alone, leading us to do whatever it takes to assure that people don't leave.
It’s Okay To Be Where You Are
We are inundated with messages of positivity, productivity, and possibility, all of which are amazing and inspiring. What can be harmful, though, is when we forget that we are also complex, multilayered beings with a wide range of experiences, emotions, and feelings.
What Else?
The way we talk to ourselves is often harsh, critical, and not very loving. I’d guess that most of us don’t talk to ourselves the way we would talk to a friend (would you agree?)
