Wellness Is Self-Love
In the hustle of daily life, we prioritize work, social obligations, and endless to-do lists, leaving little room for our own well-being. Wellness is all about thriving rather than just surviving and in order to do that, we must look inward and focus on self-love and mindfulness. Mindfulness is a simple but powerful practice that can help fuel self-love from the inside out.
Simple Mindfulness Practices for Self-Love
You don’t need hours-long meditation sessions to bring mindfulness into your life. Here are a few small yet impactful ways to get started:
Start Your Day with Intention
Before reaching for your phone, take a few deep breaths and set a positive intention for the day. This can give you time to shift your mindset from the get-go and start the day off strong!
Engage in Mindful Breathing
When stress starts to hit, pause for a moment. Close your eyes, take a slow inhale, hold for a few seconds, and exhale fully. This resets your nervous system and brings you back to the present. We love to practice box breathing in stressful situations. See below for instructions:
- Inhale deeply through your nose for 4 seconds.
- Hold your breath for 4 seconds.
- Exhale slowly through your mouth for 4 seconds.
- Hold your breath again for 4 seconds.
- Repeat as needed.
Speak to Yourself with Kindness
Notice how you talk to yourself. Would you say the same things to a close friend? Replace self-criticism with affirmations that uplift and empower you.
Practice Gratitude
Jot down three things you appreciate about yourself each day. Shifting your focus to gratitude can reframe your perspective and boost self-compassion.
Move with Love
Whether it’s stretching, exercising, or a walk outside, move your body in ways that feel good. Tune into what your body needs rather than forcing a rigid routine.
