There is no separation from who you are now and who you aspire to be. You’re her now. Act like it.

Shout Out to The Woman I’m Becoming

I love this for me. I can feel myself transforming into the woman of my desired reality. I act how I want, I radiate how I want, and most importantly, I receive what I want with easy ease.

She’s no longer fearful, now fearless.

She no longer moves with caution, now confidence.

The books I read, the environments I place myself in, the people I choose to follow & entertain all shaped me into the legend worthy Goddess I am today.

I do not know what the Universe has planned for me, but I must say I’m very pleased and grateful thus far.

I AM BLACK FEMININITY AT IT’S FINEST

Just know that the work you put into yourself will always compound and pay you back 100x. And there’s no rush to a finish line, everything is always a work in progress. I will never regret going to college, buying books, courses, classes, investing in hobbies, traveling, the gym and workout classes, high quality organic food, good healthcare, high quality clothing, taking care of my skin/hair/nails/teeth/brows/lashes/etc. because it all snowballs into the larger picture. No one can take your education from you. No one can take your fit body and healthy, glowing appearance from you. It takes real work day in and day out to have it all together. I’ve invested thousands of dollars and countless hours into myself and I would do it all again and then some. There is no easy fix and there is no get rich quick scheme. You know what you have to do, it just takes the courage to do it.

I’ve started viewing my goals and daily habits as promises to myself. Whenever I consider not doing something (working out, doing my skincare, etc) I view it through the lens of someone making a promise to me and not keeping it. I think about how pissed I would be if my boyfriend or friend would constantly make promises to me and break them. Why do I give myself grace to be inconsistent that I do not give others? Eventually, if someone keeps breaking promises to you, you learn not to trust their word and not rely on them for anything. Is that the kind of relationship you want to foster with yourself? Who can you count on, if not you?

#finger snaps #no more breaking promises to myself #how can everybody else count on me BUT me??? make it make sense

Self-Care Sunday Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Begin with Stillness Embrace the soft light of the morning as you awaken, appreciating the gentle calm that the day offers. Take a few moments to center yourself in gratitude for this opportunity of self-care.

Step 2: Nourish from Within Savor a cup of herbal tea or warm water with lemon. Allow the comforting warmth to gently awaken your senses and nourish your body from the inside out.

Step 3: Bathe in Tranquility Run a warm bath and add a handful of your favorite bath salts or essential oils. As you immerse yourself, let go of any tensions. Feel the water caress your skin, reminding you of your own tenderness.

Step 4: Tender Loving Care for Your Skin Gently apply a face mask of your choice, allowing it to work its magic. While the mask rejuvenates your skin, take a moment to appreciate the beauty that radiates from within you.

Step 5: A Melody of Serenity Create a playlist of soothing melodies that resonate with your soul. Let the music envelop you in a cocoon of tranquility as you drift into a state of relaxation.

Step 6: Grace for Your Tresses Treat your hair to a luxurious mask, massaging it in with care. As you nourish your hair, reflect on how you're also nourishing your inner self.

Step 7: Nourishment, Mindfully Savored Prepare a nourishing meal filled with wholesome ingredients. Relish each bite slowly, savoring not only the flavors but also the love and care you've invested in this moment.

Step 8: Gentle Movement and Reflection Engage in a gentle yoga or meditation session. Allow your body to stretch and release any tension, while your mind finds solace in the present moment.

Step 9: Expressive Joy Engage in a creative activity that brings you joy. Whether it's painting, writing, or crafting, let your creative spirit flow freely, without judgment.

Step 10: Embrace the Coziness of Evening Wrap yourself in the softness of your favorite robe or blanket. Create a serene space with dim lighting, allowing yourself to unwind and prepare for a restful night's sleep.

In this sanctuary of self-care, remember that you are deserving of all the tenderness and compassion you offer to yourself. Each step is a whisper of self-love, a reminder that taking care of yourself is a precious gift you give to your own heart and soul.
