January is the perfect time to slow down and recharge. Give yourself permission to relax and practice self-care this month. Here are some self-care ideas to inspire you:

❄️ Take a mindful winter walk - Step outside and enjoy a peaceful walk. Whether or not there's snow where you are, you can still enjoy the serene winter beauty. The crisp air and calm surroundings will help clear your mind and keep you grounded.

🌈 Colour in some cosy colouring pages - Get comfy and unwind with some colouring. It's a relaxing way to focus your energy, quiet your thoughts, and release stress.

☕️ Sit by the window with a warm drink - Find a cosy spot by the window, sip on a warm drink, and take a moment to unwind while enjoying the view.

👚 Spend the day in cosy loungewear - Slip into your cosiest loungewear or pyjamas and spend the day enjoying comfort and relaxation at home.

📖 Cosy up with a good book - Find a peaceful spot and get lost in a good book. Reading can help you unwind and escape for a while.

🎨 Try a new creative hobby - Explore something new like painting or journaling. It’s a great way to express yourself and relieve stress.

🍪 Bake your favourite treats - Bake something warm and comforting. The act of baking can be soothing, and the delicious treats are a bonus!

💕 Declutter your space - Take a moment to tidy up your surroundings. A neat, organized space can bring a sense of peace and create an environment where you can relax and thrive.

Taking small moments for self-care can make a big difference. It’s okay to take a break, rest, recharge, and enjoy the little things. Remember to prioritise yourself this month and throughout the year too. You matter! 💗����

What will you be doing for yourself this month?

What Love Says… A Full Cup

How do you nourish you? What opens your heart to the fullness of life? Is gratitude an elixir you choose for your heart, mind, body and soul? Are you open to the infinite potential that you are?

Imagine creating a daily practice of recognizing unconditional love that you are, that we all are. When you explore grace through unconditional love freely and openly given, embracing spontaneous play, silent repose and languishing in a sun beam.

Observe a feline, always in the moment, ready and open for anything, including treats. The purr is unconditional song of gratitude for all that is, as it is. Myriad things you learn from watching felines and all of creation.

Observation allows you to reflect and remember unconditional love that is in all of creation. Throughout your day with love awareness myriad experiences, gifts and treasures you can purr into existence with loving vibration of thoughts, words and actions.

Recognize and remember your PURRpose is to play with life, to work with what comes your way and embrace with curiosity, love and bravery as you fill your cup each day.

Felines are grateful in all moments inner-standing their treasures, gifts, skills of observation, conscious awareness and unconditional love. Can you recognize yourself in a cat?

With gratitude, a brave heart and unconditional love, fill your cup with joy, excitement, passion and playful PURRpose.

Oodles of love as you choose to create the life you PURRfer with unconditional love a full cup you shall aways have.

you need to take that time to fill your cup or you will walk into one burnout after the other! no matter how easy you think something will be it's gonna burn.you.out. if you don't have something to give you strength and feed your soul! This is what they mean by "focus on you"! build yourself up so you can properly give, giving from an empty bucket is giving nothing, that's selfcare not selfish

Sometimes you just have to say to yourself; you might still be my monkey, but I’ve quit the circus. I’m off to join a spa.

[no-more-wasted-days]

Stay busy with things that make yourself feel good and don’t jump for anyone.

Always know you have several options.

Fill your cup before filling others’.

Give yourself the validation you seek from others.

You are doing your best, and your best is enough.

Write a letter to the person who hurt you the most.

You prepared me for the worst in everyone with your personalities changing with the direction of the wind. Just when I had learned to quiet my footsteps my breathing was too loud.

Still I adapted and sought your approval just for the consequences to grow in capacity and the strikes to become harder. You gave me the life you never had and called me ungrateful when you had simply provided the bare necessities.

You opted out of breaking the trauma chain and instead added more links feigning ignorance. You are walking proof that your abusers succeeded.

don’t ever let anyone make you feel bad for investing in yourself, whether that investment is in your nutrition, your fitness, your mental peace, your spiritual practices, your lymphatic drainages, your mind and intellect or your rank of income.

you bless the world a little each time you show up as your best version. You do the world a service by pouring into your cup so that you may be abundant enough to pour into others.
