On yesterday day of ❤LOVE❤ I made myself this delicious cup of coffee ☕. I spent the day with my munchkins and took the time to sit for 10 minutes, while they played. As I sat and sipped my coffee I realized that today should also be about self love.
Anyone that has children, less then 2 years apart, can probably vouch that in the beginning (first 5 years? or maybe more? or it stays this way?🤷🏻♀️) they not only take up a lot of my energy with the bickering but at times my patience runs out quickly. I loose control and change my tone of voice to a level I do not like to reach. I begin to be hard on myself and question my mothering skills or reflect on how I could have improved on the situation.
Most of the time I can take a step back, take a few minutes to regroup, recharge, reenergize. I try to repeat positive affirmations, making sure my thoughts are positive.
So today I took the time to make and photograph this beautiful cup of coffee filled with LOVE, made with yummy organic dark roast ikea coffee, and calming adaptogens as my self-love moment. Just using this mug puts me in a great mood!
Love❤ yourself today and always!
What do you do for yourself as a gesture of self love?
