YOUR GUIDE TO SELF-LOVE

[adviceformefromme]

We are officially mid-way through the year!! 

Are you proud of the moves you’ve made? 

Have you been focusing on move the needle tasks this past 6 months? 

What are you hoping to achieve in the next 6 months? 

Who do you want to be? 

What do you need to let go? And who? What habits? 

What needs more focus? 

What needs less focus? 

Diving into yourself is juicy, its empowering, it’s expansive. Reflections offer an opportunity to re-align and re-evalaute your dreams and goals and also honour and celebrate how far you have come. Go back to your New Years resolutions, edit your life ruthlessly. You are your greatest masterpiece after all.

I have a question :)

So recently I saw a video of the wizardliz and she was talking about how toxic people with negative energy sucked her energy and that manifested physically on her, she started being depressed, hair loss... And she said to let go of those persons and when she did that she felt amazing. So right now I'm almost in the same situation, but the "toxic people" is my familly, for some reason my mom always argues with my step dad but they are still together (he is a narcissiste), and when they get mad they both get mad at me ?? :⁠-⁠\, and that negative energy is really affecting me, I'm in my worst moments, im really in a bad mental state, and i want to "grow mentally" i want to get out of this house/situation but im just a teenager i cant be independant yet, i just want my dreams to come true, i want to shift, i want to be happy and loved. I'm really tired. Thanks for your attention!!!

WHAT I DO WHEN I’M ON MY PERIOD

୨☕️୧

Hi, hii! Today’s post isn’t random because I started my period yesterday and I also got sick so my energy is really drained and I want to share a few tips to maybe help some of you! ( this is the 2nd time I’m writing this so I’m a bit annoyed )

— HYDRATION : you gotta drink A LOT of water during your period. Hydration is already so important as it is but during your period it’s 10x more important

— TEA : first of all shoutout to all my tea girlies. Then, I love drinking tea ( without caffeine!) because it not only makes my cramps better because of the warmth and since i often drink peppermint and ginger ( which is really good during your period ) but i also just convince myself that tea will make me feel better so it does. ( it’a all about the mindset )

— POSITIVITY : I always try to see the good in things which also includes my period. As i told SOME PEOPLE I imagine it as the blood of my enemies.. not i’m kidding. I just tell myself that I can grow a whole human and that it’s gonna be over soon. This isn’t temporary so I shouldn’t complain because I can’t change anything about it by complaining ( I tell myself that with a lot of things. Complaining never helps )

— EATING : I try to get as many vitamins in as possible with veggies, fruits and nuts but fish and chicken is also very good for you!

— VITAMINS/SUPPLEMENTS : i only eat chicken as meat so i’m deficient in a lot of vitamins so i have to take a lot of the most important one during your period is magnesium. Even if you eat a lot of food containing magnesium ( mostly nuts ) you should consider taking some magnesium supplements

— REST : this is the key to not passing out in this week of suffering. Sleep a lot and limit your physical activity ( I’m sorry to my athletes out there. ), instead of going to the gym and doing heavy workouts stay in bed and read a nice book or do chores around the house ( also has you moving )

— MOVE : very contradictory but yoga and a bit of walking can never do harm, i love walking during my period because it makes me feel like I did something but it also doesn’t leave me completely drained from all energy.

— WARMTH : tea, warm baths, heating pads and pets ( my cats keep me warm <3 )

— DISTRACTION : this may differ from person to person but I need a lot of distraction especially when I’m just laying around in bed so I usually read a very captivating book to focus 100% and forget about the pain.

— PEOPLE : I stay in my dark room and when I’m in school talk less because I’m worried that I’ll snap at people but I usually tell my friends that I’m on my period or they figure so there isn’t any misunderstandings

— REMINDERS : you can’t do anything about the fact that you get periods, they’re normal and you shouldn’t feel ashamed about them. People who make you feel that way about them are childish. You weight may vary so don’t panic! ( i don’t weight myself during my period because it’s not my real weight so it’s of no use! ). Your energy is already low so try to stay calm and not waste it on unnecessary things or people. Drama can wait for when you’re ovulating.

Try new things, step out of your comfort zone, take risks, do things in ways you've never done them before, ask for help, surround yourself with self-actualized people, become obsessed with the fact that you have one go-round on this planet as the you that is you, and realize how precious and important it is not to squander that. In order to be an icon, a few times you need to be bold. How do I define boldness? Stepping outside of your comfort zone.

You should not remain in your comfort zone; if you want to make it big, you must challenge yourself, get out of your comfort zone, and succeed in doing well outside of your comfort areas. In life, we should explore options outside our comfort zone.

How to Sincerely Apologize to Someone You Hurt Deeply | SUB

[everywherenyc]

Happy Valentine's Day! Happy Valentine's Day to those in relationships.. Don't make the often made mistake of judging your relationship against some perfect relationship that does not really exist.

Remember, the imperfections in your relationship are the things that make it unique and true beauty lies in uniqueness. Remember, uniqueness is not a weakness.

To those who are single, like me, remember that even though you don't have to buy a gift you are still in a relationship with yourself. If you do nothing else, look yourself in the eyes in the mirror and tell yourself "Thank You"..

It may sound useless, crazy, woo woo but once you've done it look at the look on your face.. by doing it you're telling yourself you love yourself..

❤️ And that's what the day's about.

🙏🏾

Thank you for letting me be part of your, Valentine's, day.

If you grew up in an abusive home, you’ve probably learnt to play the second class citizen when it comes to love, and who could blame you? This was your only way to survive, you came second, the person you loved, your 'protecter' came first. Walking on egg shells, and trying your best to keep your abuser happy and not upset was a lifestyle for so many years. But as an adult, if you carry over this learnt behaviour, you’ll suffer. You’ll feel short changed in relationships, over giving and under receiving. The scales won’t be tipped in your favour… but how do you move out of this people pleasing tendency and put yourself first?  - You need to reflect, get clear and understand the roots, what you are missing in your life that is allowing you to continue to put yourself second, maybe deep down you don’t feel worthy, you don’t feel love. It might take a while to realise this but once you get to the root you can start reprogramming your self concept (there is so much on Tiktok, youtube etc on this topic) - So you’ve established the root of your people pleasing, now you need to re-write the script. You need to work on this everyday, with affirmations, journalling and ACTIONS that (at first might feel like swimming against the tide) but ultimately will get you to a place of HEALTHY love. For example, if you are prone to hyper-fixating on a man for attention and validation. You need to focus on giving this to yourself. When you self validate, nothing or no one can take this away from you. This looks like telling yourself and giving yourself everything you CRAVE. Not from him, not from your friends, but from within. Yes, it will take some effort and work, but do you want to play out your broken childhood wounds or start living from a place of power?  - Once you’ve worked on your self concept and taken the time to fill your own cup, it’s time to start dating and learning to put yourself first. This might take some practise, but keep trying, keep prioritising you, and if you slip up, don’t beat yourself up. Growth is not a straight-line. The most important thing is you're trying your best and moving in the direction of self love and healing.
