February 21, 2024 Digital detox- Self-love Challenge Day 21
It's day 21! We are almost done! This one may be hard. Try to do a digital detox. This can be for 15 minutes or longer. Pretend it's the 80's! I may be dating myself but this was before we had all of these gadgets and gizmos. Take baby steps, set a timer for yourself and go for a walk or journal. Call a friend or read a book.
The world will still keep going if you're not online! Trust me! Our brain takes a dopamine hit from being engaged with our devices so to fill that need we are constantly on our electronics. While these have a good purpose and can be handy they can also be stressful as we compare our lives to those seemingly perfect lives of social media. Or we are checking our subscribers, Likes, views, and so on. Step back today or try this on the weekend!
Start by:
Setting a Digital Wellbeing setting or Do not disturb.
Put your devices away for 5 minutes
Have a designated place where your phone stays when you walk in the door at the end of the day and don't check it. (We still have a landline so we can get old school calls)
Use this time to get outdoors, have conversations with your family or to reconnect with hobbies!
Take small steps! Let me know how this goes for you!

February 20, 2024 Boundaries- Self-love Challenge Day 20
Let's talk Boundaries! Do you have these or know what they are?
I never knew:
I can tell someone how I felt.
I can tell someone what my needs were.
I can tell someone when something didn't feel good.
In our relationships with others and including ourselves it is important to make sure your voice is heard.
Boundaries are your values, core beliefs, and respect. This comes from a place of love for you and those in your circle. We are born into families or get into relationships that have unhealthy patterns. This may not include knowing what boundaries are or what they look like.
You may notice someone makes you feel guilty for putting up boundaries. You may feel:
• Fear of being rejected
• People not liking you when you present your boundaries
• Fear of confrontation
Setting healthy boundaries looks like:
• Asking for help when you need it
• Saying “No” without guilt
• Being respectful of the boundaries of others even if they conflict with your own

February 16, 2024 Ask for help- Self-love Challenge Day 16
Day 16 of the self-love challenge!
The power of "Asking" for help is powerful and is a BIG part of self-love. We have a tendency to do things on our own and it can be overwhelming if things go sideways. What does waving the white flag do? It's allowing compassion and trust to come in. What does this mean? Asking can be motivating, open up dialogue, create opportunities, and help with day-to-day tasks.
Perhaps your car is at the mechanism and you need a ride to get you to a job interview but you don't want to "bother" a friend or you aren't sure how to do a resume but know of an employment agency that may be able to help.
Asking for help doesn't mean you are weak or that you should feel ashamed. There could be a friend out there that knows you are struggling and has been waiting for the chance to help you!
If it makes you feel better depending on if it's a costly request, can you trade something for working together? Like baking? Making a meal? Or creating something in exchange for the help. Sometimes we need that extra nudge or to lessen the load. Take a moment today to think of what you need assistance with and who can help you out. Even if it's virtual!
You never know where this could lead to! If your person doesn't wish to have anything in return accept this blessing. Many people just like to be a friend and offer that support when needed. This can be foreign to you if you have never had a honest and true person in your life for support.

February 12, 2024 No Complaining Self-love Challenge Day 12
We are on Day 12 of the Self-love Challenge and today's challenge may be rough for you!
Go 24 hours without "complaining". This means no- "That was my parking spot you Jerk!", "Nothing good ever happens to me!", "I'm always late!". You get the picture?
Complaining is negative energy that you are putting out into the world and in your own space that negativity takes a LOT of energy! Give thought to what you are really feel. When you notice you are doing this reframe or think of a positive solution for the situation.
🔥Strive to form friendships based on positive things
🔥Complaining regularly can bring down your mood
🔥 Give a negative outlook
I'd love to hear how this goes for you!
