Today reminds us to spread & show love to others, but what about ourselves? 💕
When was the last time you felt love for yourself?
Your mind?
Your body?
This week I am going to be posting about how to show your body and mind more love.
With the chaos of everyday life, it is easy to brush our mental health aside. Keeping a quiet and peaceful mindset is every bit as important as physical health.
Let me say that again. YOUR MENTAL HEALTH IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS YOUR PHYSICAL HEALTH.💙
Remember to take breaks for yourself...
✨Meditate
✨Do some yoga
✨Take a walk in nature
✨Journal
✨Read a book
✨Put down your cell phone and be present
✨Practice mindfulness
✨Take a nap (I'm loving this one these days😂😴👩🍼)
Extra tips:
💖There is also an acupuncture point called Yintang. This point is located directly between the eyebrows, and has a profound effect on how the body responds to stress. Press your thumb gently between your eyebrows and take 3-5 slow, deep breaths to calm the mind, improve sleep, and reduce anxiety.
💖Some oils to help calm the mind include chamomile, lavender, sandalwood, ylang ylang, and frankincense. Use these in a diffuser to create a calming environment at home.
💖Last but not least, consider an acupuncture session designed specifically for mental health and relaxation. Nothing centers the mind and body quite like an acu-nap!
Reach out to me with any questions, yes I am on maternity leave, but I will still be checking my inbox on occasion (so there may be a bit of a delay - but I will respond🙏)! Namaste. ☮️
