Day 3

sweet daily rituals for a calm life 🕊️

+ morning coffee or tea ritual: start your day with a carefully prepared cup of coffee or tea, and if you can, enjoy it slowly somewhere cosy, with a book or soft music in the background.

+ journalling ritual: whether it's morning pages or an end-of-day debrief, consider free-flow journalling to unclog your thoughts, face any problems, and deal with your emotions.

+ skincare ritual: develop a luxurious skincare routine, slowing down to pay real attention and care to your body. consider adding in lymphatic massage, too.

+ mindful cooking: allow cooking to be a meditative process, taking time to choose fresh, seasonal ingredients, explore new recipes, and enjoy the hands-on experience of being in the kitchen. set the table with care, even for simple meals, using beautiful dishes and linens.

+ midday break: decompress and take a quiet break in the middle of the day, perhaps with a short walk through a nearby park or a few minutes of journaling. pause and reflect on how you are feeling and how you want to feel for the rest of the day.

+ afternoon tea or snack: enjoy a piece of dark chocolate, some fresh fruit, delicious cheese, or a small pastry, served on a delicate tray or vintage plate, for a moment of indulgence.

+ evening wind-down: in the evening, unwind with a bath or hot shower, surrounded by soft candlelight and soothing music, followed by changing into comfortable, elegant loungewear or pyjamas. this could be a time for reading, listening to music, spending time with your partner, or enjoying a classic film.

+ home care: pay daily attention to your living space and cultivate a serene and inviting atmosphere by tidying up, clearing away clutter, arranging fresh flowers, and lighting a candle or two.

+ gratitude practice: take a few moments for reflection and gratitude, appreciating the small, beautiful moments that made your day special.

Being it girl/ that girl is not about bodyshaming yourself and others. It's not about misogynistic view on other women. It's not about hateful comments towards other's lifestyles. Being it girl is not about eating disorder and self-hate. It's not about creating ourselves for beauty standards and male gaze.

It's about self-care and healthcare. It's about respecting our own selves, it's about respecting our personalities and bodies. It's about healthy meals, it's about treating yourself with kindness, it's about complimenting ourselves, it's about love, self love especially.

life feels more comfortable when it's cold and cloudy outside

IT WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE EASY

let it really sink in.

it was never meant to be easy, yet, you’re doing it.

celebrate your wins! no matter how small, acknowledging your successes can boost your confidence.

embrace your failures! see them as learning opportunities rather than setbacks.

practice positive self-talk! replace negative thoughts with positive affirmations.

set realistic goals! achieving small, manageable goals can build your confidence over time.

seek feedback! constructive feedback can help you improve and feel more confident in your abilities.
