Take a look at this, but also don't judge yourself if you leave boxes unchecked. You've got time. Just remember to never let anything get in the way of taking care of yourself

i know we're all sick of self-care being a marketing tactic now, but i don't think a lot of us have any other concept of self-care beyond what companies have tried to sell us, so i thought i'd share my favorite self-care hand out

Learning to love yourself ౨ৎ

Celebrate yourself. Every accomplishment deserves to be acknowledged, no matter how big or small. Stop putting yourself down by thinking that you don't deserve to celebrate your achievements just because others have accomplished "greater things." Also, there is so much fun in hyping small wins; call your girlfriend, bake a cake, and enjoy yourself!!

Invest time in things that you love. Doing what makes you happy is essential for your mental health. It's so important to pursue one's small and simple pleasures without the intention of turning them into profit!!

Boundaries and relationships. Learn to say no, define and set boundaries, question your current relationships and friendships, and distance yourself from people who make you feel unloved or worthless.

Allow yourself to grow. Let go of the notion that you are undeserving of growth. Acknowledge the past for what it is, learn from it, and grow from it.

Refelct. Getting to know yourself deeply is key to self-love; journaling is a great way to reflect. Ask yourself questions, question your habits, observe how you respond in certain situations, etc...

Trust yourself and your intuition. Listen to yourself, and don't dismiss the small cues that your inner voice gives you!!

Care for yourself. It is not selfish to look after yourself. Start exercising, eat balanced and healthy, stay hydrated, educate yourself, read complex literature, consume media mindfully, prioritise your sleep and routines, care for your skin and hair...

Be patient. Self-love takes time; you must slowly unpack and unlearn past habits, confront uncomfortable thoughts and memories, and gain a deep understanding of yourself. Give yourself time and approach this as a journey to enjoy. <3

Just focus on the here and now.

Let’s normalize blocking people who gave us pain and personal issues on social media until their existence no longer bothers us. Your mental health is much more important than what they will have to say about you and what they might do while they still have the chance to communicate with you or stalk your profile.

everything seems scarier and lonelier and grief is always harder when it’s late at night. if you’re struggling, please go to bed, maybe journal a little before or have a warm drink like hot chocolate or tea. my migraines weren’t letting me sleep but it seems like they’re finally a little better so I’ll try to rest now. remember that to take care of the things you want to do, you need to be rested first. ❤️‍🩹🌱

For all my followers (and anyone else who comes across this), make sure to take care of yourself! Times are uncertain and frightening for people around the world, so take just one day or maybe two or even a week if you need it to just relax.

Read or re-read a favorite book, make yourself a warm drink, have something you really like to eat but haven’t had in a while, do something you never thought you could do. Or just keep on living. Whatever that means to you. That’s what’s most important.

achieving buttery smooth skin ° ᡣ𐭩 . ° .

achieving soft skin starts before the shower!! so having a pre shower routine is essential

DRY BRUSHING

get. a. dry. brush. just do it. it made my skin so so soft before I even got into the shower. dry brushing stimulates the lymphatic system, exfoliates the skin, removes toxins, etc. i do this one- two times per week! but it all depends on your skin sensitivity.

MOISTURIZING

right when you get out of the shower, you need to moisturize. lotion, body oil to seal everything in, and then perfume, all in that order = the softest skin ever

SHAVING

something that could cause dry skin is your shaving routine. its recommended to use at least a four blade razor to get the closest, smoothest shave. I personally like using baby oil or something along the lines of that to shave because it doesn't irritate skin and it always makes my shave come out amazing. please please exfoliate before you shave. it removes the layer of dead skin so you're able to get a closer shave

EXFOLIATING

same thing with the dry brush, i love a good sugar scrub or exfoliating gloves. keep in mind you don't need to use these every single day since it will damage your skin.

SOME OF MY FAVE PRODUCTS FOR SOFT SKIN:

EOS vanilla cashmere body lotion

palmers cocoa butter body oil

victoria's secret vanilla body oil

bath and body works strawberry pound cake lotion

treehut sugar scrubs

pure shea butter

palmers body gloss

Unfinished Business: The planet with the highest degree in our chart is often the planet we have some unfinished business with.  There will be some sort of soul level need to fulfill this contract, for better or worse. Here is the goal for each of the planets:

Sun: In this life it is about finding a platform, success or fame. But the goal if the Sun is your highest degree planet is to do this without ego.

Moon: Finding happiness and building emotional stability within oneself. Learning to love selflessly

Venus: Finding love in all things, but learning to be balanced and not obsessive or possessive

Mercury: Using your intellect and communication skills to help others. Learning to share without deception or malice.

Mars: Following the law and learning to defend those who cannot defend themselves. Mastery over channeling anger towards the highest good for all

Jupiter: Exploring the meaning of the divine through human nature and religion/spirituality.  Learning through family (spouse, and children) as well as teachers or mentors without expecting something in return.

Saturn: Being disciplined and to face the reality of existence as opposed to dwelling in an ideal or dream world. Learning to embrace solitude.

Rahu: (debatable if this is counted)- Learning to go after goals and desires in a balanced way. Learn to be present and not obsessive and worried about the house Rahu is placed in.

Namaste...
