Self care ideas for your soul

18. Journal about what or who you need to forgive in order to feel better. Remember, forgiveness isn’t about condoning bad behaviour, it’s about setting yourself free of the pain you associate with the past.

19. We can be so hard on ourselves, so try spending a few moments in self-compassion. This could be in a journal, or positive self talk in your head. Be understanding of your situation, tell yourself you’re doing the best you can and that you’re proud.

20. Have some fun with identifying what you want to create in life and use all sorts of manifesting techniques to align with your vision. This can involve dreaming, visualisation, intuition and planning!

21. Spend a chunk of time being creative. Try music, art, craft, writing, making, cooking, singing, playing, dance, drama, poetry, comedy – try any form of self expression! Self expression is a most wonderful form of self care, as it honours who you are and your unique expression in this world. Just remember there is no right or wrong in creativity, the point is to create, not make something perfect.
