3. Do something that makes you feel pretty each morning.
Put on your favorite earrings, red lipstick or dab of perfume. Sometimes brushing my teeth is all I can manage, so I like to use a fancy pink grapefruit toothpaste( that I just happened to get a ton of free at a blogging conference).
Start the day o! doing something special just for you before you start being torn a million di! erent directions. You are worth it.
4. Eat something you like.
Note, I didn’ t say try to get your kid to like it. I love kielbasa. My family complains about even the smell of it. I’ m going to make a big skillet of turkey kielbasa with sauerkraut this weekend. For me. Because I deserve to cater to myself sometimes and so do you.
5. Learn about something that interests you.
It’ s okay if it’ s wine, chocolate or even Harry Styles- no judgement here! Take some time to explore an interest and widen your mental horizons.
6. Plan a vacation.
Even if you don’ t have the time or funds to go on the vacation. Research shows just planning the vacation is relaxing. So where would you like to go on this imaginary getaway? I’ m going to double dip with # 5 here and learn about Caribbean all inclusive resorts.
