Tips to Realise Your ‘Enoughness’:
Give yourself Time and Space- just for you. Have a mindset shift… that you are ALREADY Spend time with people that lift you up and that model the changes you want to make in yourself. Have a social media clear out or detox; look at the accounts you see the most...and just ask yourself ‘do I feel good?’ And if it doesn’t – lovingly get rid (unfollow). And follow positive pages/ people that make you feel good/positive and show up as the kind of person that you want to show up as. Gratitude Journal and/ or daily forgiveness practice. Practice ‘Bliss-ipline’- do things daily that actually make you feel good. Give yourself 15 minutes a day (at least) to practice self-love. You inspire people in the process. Give yourself permission and let yourself celebrate the things you are good at – you give other people permission to do the same!
