Looking for the Good
Do you give self-love?
I attended a Zoom workshop awhile back where we were asked to list 10 ways that we show others that we love them and then 10 ways that we show love to ourselves. Some struggled with how to show self-love. I created the list fairly quickly, but then realized that I have not been doing much on the list. Here are some ways were on my list of how I could show love to myself. Some I have done in the past or are currently doing, and others I am going to start this week. There are probably even more to add to the list, so let me know your ideas in the comments, please.
Read Listen to musicJournalMeditateWalk/exerciseEat nutritionallyDo fun things like hobbiesCreate through writing or artMake Gratitude listsPray for selfWrite cards or notes of love to selfGive gift/flowers to selfTell self “I love you”Be kind to self/stop expecting perfection
I also realized that I wanted to restart a challenge I gave myself back in August 2019 and wrote about here: Could you spend two hours alone each week? I am going to start to have a one to two hour date with myself weekly.

All through my day, no matter where I go, or what I do, I am always looking for the good in people, in the world, in my life or even just in my day.

While it is easy to focus on the negative aspects of life, I choose to continue looking for the good in people and in the world around me, and I want to share why they do what they do. I am the proud mother of three adult daughters and live in the Chicago area. I have worked in the Early Childhood Education field since 2001, and I write books when the inspiration comes.
