How to implement self love into your busy life!



Here we are at the end of the blog series with the last three acts of self love, I've had so much fun writing it and I really hope you got something out of it. 

Something that we all deal with is FRUSTRATION, we are frustrated we don't have time, that we can't go to the toilet alone, that we have to wait to have a decent conversation with our husbands or friends, we are frustrated because our goals and aspirations are put on hold, or we can't cook dinner because that's the time our babies/toddlers want our undying attention like they have been neglected all day!!!!!

So how can we eliminate some of that frustration? 

By taking time out for ourselves, to fill our cup up, then and only then can we start to give back to our family!

The next 3 acts of self love are all about that, organising yourself so you are in more control over your time, grounding yourself and being grateful and taking a stand and choosing where you spend your precious time!

13)       Organise your day ahead, plan and form structure. Being organised creates order and a feeling of being in control. You will feel on top of things and the feelings of being overwhelmed will slip away. Whenever I feel myself feeling frustrated and overwhelmed I step back and access what’s not in order then apply some organisation and feel relaxed knowing all is in CONTROL! Plus I’m a big control freak and perfectionist but I’m working on that hahaha!!!!

14)       Go outside barefoot and ground yourself! Connect yourself to Mother Earth and feel her love oozing into the soles of your feet, working her way up through your chakras. Look around and be GRATEFUL for all you have, thank the universe for all your blessings! Practising gratitude opens the door for more blessings to enter your life, it’s so easy to get carried away in your own little world so for today just STOP, centre yourself and be grateful! Start a gratitude journal if you feel this will help!

15)       Last but not least SWITCH OFF FROM SOCIAL MEDIA…….Yep that’s right disconnect, disengage, turn all your electronics OFF! Technology and all the  EMF etc it’s bad for your health and we are on these devices way too long. I was a Facebook addict, I used the excuse of being isolated, no friends or no hubby around and my business to be on Facebook/Social media ALL the time it was CONSUMING me and I felt horrible.

        I hate to think the damage it was doing to my health,  plus I was neglecting my kids as I was on it all the time, checking posts, likes, comments, etc  but this year is the year of ACTION and I made a promise to myself that I will only use social media for business and limit my personal use to 30 Min's a day and SUNDAYS are my technology free days as from now and its working,

 I am more connected with my family, I’m not stressing that I don’t have time for anything and I’m getting more work done YAY WINNING!!!!! Perhaps write up a schedule for yourself or allocate certain time slots or choose one day where you completely SWITCH OFF! 

Get outside with the kids and kick a ball or play in the sandpit, they will love you for it! My boys love that mummy is taking that time for them, I chased them around the park today and they were giggling away loving every moment, let's cherish these moments because they really do grow up too quick!

Thank you for your company and I look forward to sharing more on the blog soon!

Lots of love & gratitude
