I am capable, I can do absolutely anything.

I am going to heal.

I am exactly where I am meant to be.

I am loved.

My existence matters.

Everything is working out for me.

• Release the tension in your shoulders • Do some neck stretches • Stop holding tension in your jaw • Take a few deep breaths • Breathe and stretch if you are wearing a binder

I was tagged by @littlevictorieseveryday and I’m just now getting around to this. Thanks for the tag!

The 5 things I’d have in my ‘Self Care Kit’ would be:

1. Hot bubble bath - nothing better than soaking in bubbles! (Add a glass of wine and I’m even more content)

2. Comfy clothes - I LOVE big comfy sweaters and leggings or sweats. So roomy and cozy.

3. My bed - comfortable, warm and quiet. All I need in life!

4. My kitten Louie - he always loves me even when I’m cranky or I’ve had a bad day. He gets on my lap and purrs and I feel better instantly. And he’s soft. So that’s the best part.

5. Greys Anatomy - this stupid show makes me cry all the time which seems like it shouldn’t fit here, but a good cry can make you feel better. Plus it’s good to escape reality every once and a while.
