3 DIY SPICE MASKS

3 DIY SPICE MASKS

It's not selfish to love yourself, take care of yourself, and to make your happiness a priority. It's necessary.” “How we care for ourselves gives our brain messages that shape our self-worth so we must care for ourselves in every way, every day. -Fred and Far

“I am not happy! I would really like to just take the edge off. I’m not adulting today.”

My definition of self care is the ability to pay attention, while I do the work that my body + soul needs. Darling, we can’t outsource care. The rise of the internet has created a desperate distraction that nobody is rich enough to buy, that is “I should’ve healed that wound yesterday.” .

The ultimate measure of your self-care is how you stand in times of challenge with tenacity.

Enjoy these three recipes as you balance and realign your season!
