I tend to think we don’t do this enough.

Being kind to yourself can take many forms, all of them soul-lifting.

1. don’t talk s**t about yourself. To yourself or anyone else!
2. don’t put yourself down, especially in front of others. Not even for a joke.
3. get enough sleep. And if you can’t, take a nap during the day.
4. drink lots of water and cut out the caffeine and sugary drinks. They are doing you and your hips no good!
5. check in with your mental health: how are you feeling? Are you upset or sad about…whatever?
6. Limit your alcohol consumption. Drinking to excess doesn’t kill the pain, make the bad thoughts go away, or take you out of a situation you’d rather not be in. It simply makes you drunk, sloppy, unattractive, and sick
7. take a walk. 5 minutes, ten. Just get outside and get some fresh air.
8. take deep breaths before speaking and responding in anger. ( I need to practice this one more often!)
9. say goodbye to the negative people in your life no matter how much it hurts to. Kick them to the curb and then don’t look back.
10. get a massage/facial/manicure, whatever, to make you FEEL fresh.

There are a million more ways to take care of yourself – write some down of your own and then….do them!
