DAILY RITUALS





























Outfit Details: Peasant Blouse...Vintage(from my trip to OR), Skirt...Madewell (for only 20 bucks!!), Socks...Target, Shoes...Thrifted, Liberty of London Scarf...Thrifted


Its been a tough start to the year, my health has been not up to snuff and I'm starting to think that there might be something going on under the surface. I finally made myself a doctor's appointment to get a check up. I have a sneaking suspicion that my health woes are connected to me being too stressed out and generally unhappy. The other night, I had a break through of sorts, I made a list of daily rituals that I wanted to live everyday by and since have been implementing it as a type of mantra of how I want my day to go. Its been very helpful with my stress management. I thought I would share it with you all!


DAILY RITUALS
LOVE with all your heart
EAT healthy food and take the time to ENJOY it
TAKE at least 20 mins to WRITE down thoughts and ideas
GO outside and BREATHE
STRETCH the body and mind
SING along to a good song
HAVE a good conversation
SLEEP a good sleep
SMILE 
REMEMBER that NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE

  3. Sorry to hear you've been having a rough time. Sounds a lot like my life up until recently. I wasn't sleeping attt all and was so stressed out and sick all the time. It was a mess. I've recently made a list of similar daily goals and I'm really starting to feel like life's more relaxing and organized, even though I'm working more than I ever have. It's amazing to see the positive effects of just getting your mind in the right place. Hope you start feeling better soon!! Now that the weather's nice we should go for a walk with a cup of Brewbakers ice coffee or something! :)
