Like everything else in my life, approaching it with a relaxed and playful attitude proved far more effective than self-pressure, worry, and hurrying.(less)

I lost all enthusiasm for my business, forgot what fun looked like, and was far more anxious and judgemental than usual. I needed to level up my wellness routines, and the tools I used myself are what formed the first iteration of this book. (One of my absolute faves is the 1-Minute Mood Boosters.) In the end, I got my playful side back. I trained for and ran my first marathon and wrote and published this (my first!) book relatively easily, once I slowed down enough to take some tender loving care of myself.(less)

“The unpredictable waves of painful emotions will come again. They always do. Why not load yourself up with life preservers?”
― Mandy Kubicek, My Tender Loving Self-Care Journal: The Workbook that Makes Self-Care Easy

“All you ever have to take is one easy step.”
― Mandy Kubicek, My Tender Loving Self-Care Journal: The Workbook that Makes Self-Care Easy

“Take a moment right now to notice your immediate surroundings. What time is it? Where are you? What do you see, hear, and smell? What textures do you feel against your skin? Turn your attention to the insides of your body and notice what’s happening there, too.
Notice how being here now changes your experience.”
― Mandy Kubicek, My Tender Loving Self-Care Journal: The Workbook that Makes Self-Care Easy

“Imagine what you'd do if it absolutely didn't matter what people thought of you. Got it? Good. Never go back.”
― Martha Beck

“Don't believe every thing you think.”
― Byron Katie

“When they attack you and you notice that you love them with all your heart, your Work is done.”
― Byron Katie

“So this, I believe, is the central question upon which all creative living hinges: Do you have the courage to bring forth the treasures that are hidden within you?”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear

“But to yell at your creativity, saying, “You must earn money for me!” is sort of like yelling at a cat; it has no idea what you’re talking about, and all you’re doing is scaring it away, because you’re making really loud noises and your face looks weird when you do that.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear
