Affirmation: “I am gentle with myself.”
Journal Prompt:
Are there any of my needs that aren’t getting met?
Self-Care Ritual:
Can you believe we’re already at the end of this challenge?!?!?
We’ve reached Day 28, and it’s time to look back at Day 1.
So scroll through your phone, find that selfie, and let’s compare.
Take a good look at the person in that picture.
Do you remember how you felt about them?
Do you feel the same today?
I hope you are seeing yourself through very different lenses.
I hope you’ve grown to realize there is nothing wrong with you.
Wanting and needing attention, doesn’t make you selfish.
It doesn’t make you desperate, or a burden, or weak.
In fact, it makes you just like everyone else… human!
We all, if we’re honest, have a need to be seen, heard, and valued.
And we all deserve to have those needs met.
You are no exception!
You deserve to be acknowledged, loved, and cared for.
You deserve to be happy, and fulfilled.
You only have this one life, and it’s only as long as the dash between your date of birth, and your date of death.
So, do you want to spend your dash…
…apologizing?
…regretting?
…questioning?
…hating yourself?
You have this one life…
Be brave in it.
Believe in yourself.
Trust your intuition.
Take the risks.
Eat the cake.
Make yourself proud.
Don’t let anyone, including you, convince you otherwise!
And remember, this isn’t the end of your Self-Love Challenge, it’s the beginning of your new life.
A life full of self-love, and self-care.
And here is your final Self-Care Ritual –
Use the insights for your journaling today, to create a plan of action for yourself. Decide that you’re going to seek what you need.
Go get those things. Create them. Ask for them.
It’s not hard, it’s just a bit scary; but you are brave!
Go into it with your whole heart…
I promise, you won’t regret it!
Go get your needs met!
Sending love, and light to you. And honoring your effort. I’m so proud of you, for choosing to give yourself some attention and care. Thank you for sharing the journey with me.
