💕Do you struggle with self-love?  I get it - s 💕Do you struggle with self-love?  I get it - self-love was something I grappled with too. 

I remember when I:
had fallen out of love with my life. 
was disconnected from my body.
found it difficult to move my body.
saw busy as a badge of honour.
Self-soothed my emotions with food.
Couldn’t look at myself in the mirror with love and compassion.

What changed? I began where I was and focussed on one part of my health and wellbeing journey & during the process I fell back in love with myself long before I had reached my destination. 

 🌟My wish for you is that you explore your relationship to improve your health and wellbeing with some of the tips and tools I share in Hungry 4 Change. 

📖I know this book is going to make a huge impact in your life – I know because I’ve experienced it too. 

📝This is why I was so compelled to write Hungry 4 Change because I wanted to help other woman feel back in love with themselves and their lives.

💕Dear body, I love you! ⁠ ⁠ When was the la 💕Dear body, I love you! ⁠
⁠
When was the last time you said that to your body? Has it been a while? Then perhaps it's time to change that and ⁠start talking to your body and treating it with the same love and compassion that you would show to your best friend. ⁠
⁠
🗨Next time you say something bitchy about or to your body try replacing it with one of these words. ⁠
⁠
👉Save this post as a reminder of some replacement words that you can use next time to drown out your inner mean girl voice the next time she comes to visit.
💕When setbacks happen, we may be quick to judge 💕When setbacks happen, we may be quick to judge or criticise ourselves. Being kinder to ourselves is a more empowering approach.⁠
⁠
How does this work?⁠
⁠
Being kind to yourself gives you that extra bit of courage to try again.⁠
⁠
⏰️Think of the time when you were self-critical about a mistake or a setback. If you were more forgiving in those situations, how would it benefit you?⁠
⁠
📝In future, you can start being kinder to yourself by asking these questions when setbacks crop up:⁠
⁠
- How do I feel about this setback?⁠
- Did my feelings of self-worth drop when this setback happened?⁠
- If yes, why?⁠
- How am I partly responsible for this setback?⁠
- What have I learned?⁠
- What do I NOT have control over with regards to this setback?⁠
- What DO I have control over?⁠
- How can I do better next time?⁠
⁠
These questions are empowering because you grow when you learn from previous setbacks, so when faced with another setback you find yourself more compassionate towards yourself.⁠

If you’ve been out of the habit of playing, it might feel daunting or overwhelming knowing where to start!⁠ I share a few prompts to help you get started.⁠
⁠
⁠⁠What you find fun and energising may look different to other people & thats okay! Remember this is about defining what play means to you!⁠
⁠
Once you have defined what "Play" means to you;⁠
⁠
 ▶️Create time in your day/week for a play date with yourself or friends.⁠
 ▶️Schedule play into your planner like any other important appointment.⁠
 ▶️Create a Play Box – gather a few play items e.g, play dough, puzzles, or colouring books, kite, bubbles so you have easy access to your play box.⁠
⁠
Play is essential self-care!⁠

🎯⁠Do you have a vision for your life but you’re not sure how to get started?⁠
⁠
Imagine:⁠
⁠
•	Letting go of “it’s too late, my time has passed” thinking.⁠
•	Building a better relationship with your mind and body.⁠
•	Developing a nurturing relationship with yourself.⁠
•	Listening to your intuition & trusting yourself.⁠
•	Finding your own rhythm.⁠
⁠
⁠When you ⁠free yourself from the beliefs that hold you back from falling back in love with the woman you are - you get crystal clear about what you do and don't want in your life and you:⁠
⁠
•	Learn how to show up for yourself first.⁠
•	Let go of the limiting beliefs. ⁠
•	Connect to your inner wisdom.⁠
•	Create a life that you love! ⁠
•	Fall back in love with yourself.⁠
