No matter how you feel, you’re living your life’s story. So sometimes you need to just put your feet on the ground and start today’s chapter with a lot to be thankful for.
It’s so tempting to sleep in, wear pyjamas all day, just to put another set of pyjamas on at night. No one’s going to see you during lockdown anyway! (Well, I have been caught going to the letterbox in my dressing gown and Ugg boots from my neighbours across the road. But I swear I had my day clothes on underneath, I was just a bit cold.)
Getting up early, even if you have no where to actually be, is good for the mind and soul. At this time of the year we have some beautiful sunrises and I am so grateful that we live in a place where we can see them so clearly.
Dress up. Put your game face on. And what’s happening to all the clothes in the wardrobe. It’s a new season. Spring is here. So it’s time to find some clothing that makes you happy and wear them, even if it’s a fluffy boa! (only kidding, the neighbours really would think I’ve gone crazy.)
Show up for ourselves. Love yourself, honour yourself and be your own biggest supporter. Take the time to do some self care. Pamper yourself with a bubblebath, give yourself a home facial, home manicure or pedicure. Enrich your soul by playing some of those old records, tapes or even CDs. Dance to them by yourself in your lounge room. No one’s watching or visiting any time soon.
Do something that makes you happy every day with no excuses, (within the Lockdown guidelines at the moment of course!)
