#the gentle reminder

[simpforsaggitariesx]

The Author: "Bianca Sparacino" is a writer from Toronto, Ontario, who is passionate about writing honestly about the complexities of the human experience. Her books explores themes of love, loss, joy, and regret, and has a talent for turning these emotions into beautiful poetry. She is also an advocate for mental health and has been open about her own struggles with anxiety and depression. She encourages her readers to prioritize their mental health and seek help when needed.

One of her book is titled: "THE GENTLE REMINDER" It is one of my favorite books, when life gets hard, I used to read it because that book explores themes of love, loss, hope, and self-acceptance. It offers gentle reminders to be kind to oneself, to embrace imperfections, and to find strength in vulnerability.

One or my favorite qoutes to that book is — IF IT IS FOR YOU, TRUST IT WILL FIND YOU.

Checkpoint

Are you having fun? Do you want to keep scrolling or are you just on autopilot?

Have you eaten today?

Have you consumed water today?

Do you need to go to the bathroom?

Have you slept recently?

Do you have any chores in process that you've forgotten about or are putting off? (Laundry that needs taken out of the machine, a dishwasher full of dishes that need put away, etc.)

Have you taken all your meds?

If the answer is "All good," feel free to keep scrolling!

But if any of these reminded you of something you need to do, please take care of yourself. 💕

i dont know who needs to hear this but you do not need to go on a diet. you do not need to lose weight as a new year resolution. you do not need to feel shame for gaining any weight over the holidays and for enjoying yourself and the food. you do not need to tolerate diet talk after setting a boundary and if someone cant respect that then theyre being the asshole. you already have a summer body. you already are hot. theres no moral failure or shame in being fat
