Self-care is not all about scented candles, 90-minute soaks in a luxurious bathtub and pedicures.
Self-care is a salad or a piece of fruit, choosing water over fizzy drinks, and tea with one less spoonful of sugar.
Self-care is reading a book, switching off the television, and going to bed with the lights off.
Self-care is getting to work early, just so you can pause to enjoy the stillness for a few minutes before things become hectic.
Self-care is pausing to check your outfit in the mirror one last time before you step out, straightening your shirt, putting on perfume calmly and with intention.
Self-care is feeding your spirit, making time for the things that matter most.
Self-care is refusing to stoop down to the level of hate, resentment and self-pity, but choosing to rise to the level of self that you truly are, happy, content and at peace.
Self-care is choosing to do less intentionally, without feeling guilty.
Self-care is seeking only the things that help you grow, not just the things that help you feel good.
Self-care is being honest with yourself, your goals and the process you must pay to reach them.
Self-care is looking at your past and your mistakes with mercy, your present with grace and your future with hope.
The future is yours to create, bright or whatever it may be. Do so with courage, with love and with faith.
Winning is in your DNA, refuse to let the past or present events tell you otherwise.
