Diva’s and Gents! Hey there, how are you? It's Queen She known as me here, and I’m hoping 2020 has already blessed you with health, wealth and happiness. In my NeNe Leakes voice: whew chile 2019 has gone quicker than the Hostess chocolate cupcake left on my countertop while around my toddler grandchildren – it’s outta here!
I’m hoping you had a successful year and that you accomplished at least some of your goals; like me, I got at least half of em! Even though I didn’t learn 50 new words, I did learn at least 30, I didn’t read 12 new books, but I read some good stuff! And I’m still that avid reader. In summation, I’m not going to beat myself up, or harshly self-bully, but I am self-critiquing in healthy doses. I’ve found some new ways to connect, become more self-aware, be patient with myself, listen more, and slow down so I can become more of an intentional human being, living a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
Self-care is a huge topic on my list of things to learn, conquer, share and pass on. I had to and still am deliberately doing things/ activities/ acts - in order to care for my mental, emotional and physical health. In theory, it’s a simple concept, with huge benefits like improved mood and reduced anxiety and stress, but the tricky part of it is when asked by health professionals what you do for self- care, and you have nothing….uuhh, blank stare, well, I guess…yeah I learned none of that works! And they don’t want to hear it!
Coming up soon I’ll be sharing some of my self-care knacks on The Diva Journals. Stay tuned for that post. In the meantime, if you have some that you’d like to share, drop them below in the comments. Let’s converse, let’s chat!
