Invest in yourself
As most of you know I’m on the most fascinating journey of cutting out toxic things in my life and almost re discovering how to be kind to myself and most importantly how to nourish the body – its not to judge if your not, or even convert but just to encourage everyone to really look at what your consuming, spraying, using, eating etc – educate yourself and if you want to I can help you make the switch
Two books have really stopped me in my tracks and just re evaluate things, so when my friend asked if I wanted to head away to Bali I didn’t think twice - I got to nourish what was good for my soul. Sun, silence, uninterrupted sleep, beautiful food, walks, drinks, laughs (oh boy did my cheeks hurt so hard from laughing) discovering new places, yoga, reading just to name a few…
Basically closing some of the many tabs I run around with constantly open - as a Mum you never ever really switch off so there was daily face time calls to see how my boys were doing/eating/what the were wearing lol
But honestly a 6 hour delay getting home nearly wound me back up again – watching the times on the departure screens getting later and later the stress of us both trying to organise how the hell we were going to get home, ( lets just say the birds where nearly up when I walked in the door) the tension started building at the back of my neck, behind my eyes started pounding – I pulled out Frankincense aka referred to as “King of Oils” , its grounding, promotes feelings of relaxation and one of my go to's for headaches, a couple of drops in my palms, deep breaths and then rubbed into my neck + Past Tense (helps to ease muscle tension & reduce stress) another incrediable oil for those almost migraine like headaches, rolled onto the base of my neck and I actually dabbed a teeny tiny bit on my temples - trust me its strong so your blinking away the smell but boy did it kick in!
Followed by lots of water and a little shop we were good when it was time to board and head home. Plus we felt super grateful we were heading home and not stuck for a few days like we had heard was happening to some travellers.
Things are still moving at a fast pace in our household and I was a bit tired for a few days (maybe a week) after I landed but a much happier version than when I left.
It’s always a good idea to invest in yourself
