“Self-love is a balancing act between doing the fun things and practising the hard ones. Self-love is running yourself a long, hot bath. Self-love is ordering a takeaway and putting on a movie on Netflix. Self-love is meeting up with old friends, or new ones, and having engaging conversations. Self-love is also setting boundaries and saying ‘no’. Self-love is letting yourself cry. Self-love is going for a run to the park on good days and spending the morning under the covers on bad ones. Self-love is having difficult conversations. Self-love is letting go. Self-love is going to the theatre with your friends, followed by a fancy dinner. Self-love is also taking time away from everyone. Self-love is buying yourself some new clothes. Self-love is leaving your current job and taking a break. Self-love is going travelling, but self-love is also coming home. On days when you feel the happiest, self-love is going to the beach and having a picnic. Self-love is dancing in the rain. But on days when you feel low, self-love is getting under the covers early and going to sleep. Self-love is listening to health podcasts and self-love is being by yourself. When it comes to self-love, no one can tell you exactly what to do. It’s all about your perspective and where each new day takes you – because sometimes you feel like hiding away from everyone, and sometimes you feel ready to take over the world.”
