a better me is coming - a self-love guide

1. part 3

Self-care suggestions beyond "have a bath":

- collect flowers for pressing
- plan a trip in great detail
(Some safe and beautiful places are Lithuania, Amsterdam and Scotland)
- memories a poem
- find and record sounds you love
- customise a piece of clothing
- read a book you loved from childhood
- have someone do your hair/paint your nails
- climb a tree
(And spend some time there)
- find a free local event to go to
- visit an animal shelter/pet store
- try to recreate a great meal you once had
- record a fond memory
(This would be a great journal page!)
- do something you think you can't do
(E.g wear a bikini and go swim in that sea! You'll feel great I promise)

Author's Note:

This has stuck with me since I was 13:

If a man look sharply and attentively, he shall see
fortune: for she be blind, yet she is not
invisible.

Francis Bacon, 'Of Fortune', 1612
