3 Ways to Practice Self-Care in 2021

You can eat all the right foods and use all the great beauty products out there, but you can still have unhealthy looking hair and skin, and not feel great about yourself if you are not practicing self-love and self-care.

 With 2020 being one of the toughest years for many, it has never been so crucial to stay happy and sane.

 Read below our tips on how to accept yourself and stay content.

 

Manifestation

We have been recent believers in the act of manifestation. It is important to express gratitude every night before you sleep. We are so caught up with the media displaying unrealistic images of perfection, that we forget to remember the small things in life that we are lucky to have. With this, it is important to write down affirmations about what you want to achieve and set your mind to positive thoughts so you attract back positivity.

Meditation 

While this takes time to perfect and requires a lot of practice, meditation is the key to a happy and healthy life. The benefits include better health and emotional well-being, stronger focus, it helps to destress and get rid of anxiety, and it can help with many physical problems in the body too.

 We love Headspace for the newbies trying out mediation.

Listen to your Body

If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s that everyone is different and all our bodies do not work in the same way at all. It is important to pay attention to what your body is telling you. Everyone seems to be on these new fad diets of intermittent fasting, or going vegan and gluten-free or even doing the keto-diet! It’s not for everyone. If you can’t go 12 hours without eating, don’t do it, and if you enjoy have a glass of milk or coffee every morning, don’t stop yourself. They key is to eat a balanced diet and exercise as much as your body is telling you to without feeling any kind of pain.
