I am in a nest of love. Soft blue opens as a jungle reaches his paw towards my face. Both beg me not to go. I kiss their foreheads, my feet kiss the floor, rainbows dance on the walls.
"Self-care to me means listening to your mind and body’s needs for recharging or releasing. I see it as circulation of personal energy, and however you choose to manage that on your own terms."
"My ideal self-care routine would be a candle-lit bath with Epsom salts, a hair and face mask, gua sha, and an application of face and body oils. I finish with some organic dark chocolate and tea, reading my favorite book or watching my favorite show cuddled in bed."
Self-care for me is setting boundaries and sticking by my word. It is a practice of checking in with myself, questioning whether the choices I make and the environments I find myself in elevate my worthiness and serve me positively.
