Self Care Challenge

Self care should definitely not be restricted to Sundays as it is is crucial for our physical, emotional and mental well-being. Afterall,

“Self-compassion is simply giving the same kindness to ourselves that we would give to others” (Christopher Germer)

Therefore, we challenge you to 30 days of feeding your mind, body and soul and taking more time to be kind to yourself. Don’t promise to start Monday, next month, next year… start today with these 30 simple rituals:

1. Declutter a room or workspace.

2. Listen to a podcast.

3. Go for a long walk outdoors

Do so in style in Rainbow Leopard Print or Lightning Bolt Leggings by Never Fully Dressed

4. Drink at least 1.5 litres of water.

5. Make tea and call your best friend
