starting a thread of little reminders i often feel like i need to hear. will keep adding as i think of more things. these are just words that help me personally but if they help for you too then i& #39;m glad <3
everything at its own pace
talk to yourself
ask questions
be mindful of the context
you don’t have to do everything you feel like you want to do or should do
lower your expectations of yourself for the day
you are loved
practice practice practice
take time to do nothing but breathe
having trouble making a decision between a small set of options? let randomness decide and listen to how you react to the outcome in order to narrow down options
fuck diet culture
no one is judging you
be honest about your needs and boundaries
it’s not weird to message your friends out of the blue. if you don’t know what to say try something like “hey! was just thinking of you. down to chat about whatever or to just say hi”
if the words don& #39;t come that& #39;s ok. and remember that you can always string together a bunch of simple words to convey a complicated thought. there is power in simplicity.
growth is a much better motivator than shame
listen to your body. take time to exist in your body rather than just your mind.
you deserve to be free of your own expectations
make time for even the smallest of steps
small things matter
