The Self~Care Bare Club

Self~sabotage is the act of doing (or not doing) things that keep you from your values, goals, & being your best self. Fear, doubt, shame & blame keep us wired in negative frequencies & coming back for more. Whether consciously or unconsciously, we all participate in some form of self~sabotage. I myself, am it's biggest fan! But there is good news... Self~love is more powerful than self~sabotage. It always wins, but it requires discipline & a shit ton of awareness—who's got time for that? You do, my friend. Remember who you are & remember what you want, because you can have it all.

Movement is essential for you health. In fact, your body is in a constant state of motion with no conscious effort. Hearts beating, bloods pumping, breath is expanding—all while you’re focused on everything else. Imagine then what intentional exercise could do for you? The endless benefits go well beyond “looking fit” & maintaining weight. Instead of reaching for another pill or band aid, what if you used physical activity as your daily dose of goodness?

Making healthier choices isn't always easy or even understandable with all the different options & dietary restrictions out there today.. but if you're looking for a place to start, I'd recommend simply keeping it balanced. These seven tips will elevate your diet & awareness creating a healthier mind, body, & soul. Taste the rainbow.. No, I'm not talking about Skittles! Although, I think it's no secret that processed foods should be the least of what you consume. Trust me, I'll never ask you to eliminate anything. Just see if you can start with one switch at a time until it becomes a habit & you might surprise yourself one day by not wanting the Skittles at all! (Cue theme music.)

This is my love/hate relationship with alcohol. Post Malone gets it.. I think you might too! Alcohol is great & can even be good for your health, but it comes with some addictive qualities whether we like to admit it or not. I never regret not having a(nother) drink, but there's so many times I've regret indulging in too much. Nowadays, I'm simply trying to catch a buzz without it. If you've ever been curious or considered cutting back, this is the perfect place to start. I got your back.

What are you giving your attention to? Your thoughts shape your world wether you’re aware of them or not. The first step is tuning in..

The choice isn’t always easy, but it is ALWAYS yours.
