As the main character of your story, you deserve to be prioritized—at least by you. While it’s okay to throw yourself into work and stay productive, it’s also important to take a step back at times to breathe and practice some self-care.
Here are some unusual self-care tips we swear by.
Take A Nostalgic Trip Down the Memory Lane
Sometimes, life gets busy and overwhelming, and this is when you should remind yourself of much simpler times to calm down yourself, and keep yourself grounded.
One amazing way to do this is by taking a trip down memory lane. Remind yourself of a time when you were content and fulfilled. Here are a few ways to go about this:
- Watch some childhood cartoons or TV shows.
- Look through old photo albums.
- Listen to music that you used to blast on your Walkman or iPod.
- Try a family recipe that makes your kitchen smell like your childhood home or your Gran’s home.
- Reread your favorite childhood stories.
These are some incredibly powerful ways to recharge your soul and make it feel lighter and refreshed!
Write Yourself a Love Letter
Another unusual but brilliant self-care tip is to write yourself a love letter. Let’s be honest; nobody can know or love us better than we love ourselves, right? So, why not capitalize on this self-love and write yourself a detailed and heartfelt love letter? This will work as a sort of self-affirmation, and it’ll make you feel great about yourself.
This is a great self-care practice because it helps in two ways. First, writing itself is a very soothing activity; it allows you to align all your thoughts on paper and is a great way to express your feelings. Moreover, when you write nice things about yourself in a letter, you’re forced to admit how amazing you are, and you can go back to the letter several times for multiple reminders in case you forget!
Book A Hypnosis Session for Yourself
Our final unusual self-care tip is hypnosis—it’s a wonderfully relaxing practice. Of course, we don’t mean the kind of hypnosis you see on television; that’s mostly just for fun and games. Instead, we’re referring to the kind of hypnosis we offer at Blossom Hypnosis.
During our hypnosis sessions, we’ll ask you to relax your mind and guide you toward your inner consciousness. When your mind is in this deep state of relaxation, your subconscious mind becomes very alert and open to suggestions. This allows us to suggest mood and behavior improvements that help you feel better and experience a better quality of life after a few sessions. It’s a great self-care approach and should be a regular practice in everyone’s life.
