Do you need more of this?
I hadn’t planned to share any more sneak peek content from the Rediscover Me Challenge but this is just too important not to share. Don’t worry, I’ll be back to my regularly scheduled fashion and beauty talk next week but I truly believe that pretty starts on the inside, and that’s what this challenge is all about.
Women who’ve already signed up for the challenge have started to tell us their stories in our closed Facebook group. One common theme is many of them are in need of more “me time” and better self-care.
Today’s excerpt from day three of the Rediscover Me 28 Day Challenge focuses on just that.
As women, we are wired to put others first, which leaves us depleted and in need of recharging our own batteries. It’s just like the oxygen mask announcement on the plane – secure your own mask first, then help others. If we don’t have our own mask secured with life-giving oxygen, then we are useless to others. Unfortunately many of us are walking around with empty tanks, in need of refilling.
Today’s goal setting exercise will be geared toward recharging ourselves.
Not only is self-care a crucial component of this but we all know that the way we look absolutely is a direct correlation to the way we feel. If there’s anything I’ve learned both in my personal experience and through hosting GYPO Style Challenges, it’s that a woman’s confidence climbs when she feels good about how she looks. Myself included.
So, let’s talk about some self-care/appearance goals. When I mention this, what pops up for you immediately? What do you intuitively feel like you need most of all? Trust your intuition, your gut KNOWS what your mind and body need most of all.
If you’re drawing a blank don’t worry I’ve included a list of some self-care/appearance goals below to get you started.
