7 Self-Love Tips To Bounce Back From A Bad Week
Maritza Romero

We’ve all been there. It’s the end of the week and maybe it’s been little things that have just been piling up like you couldn’t find a parking spot on time, you forgot some answers to the quiz you’ve been studying days for, or you’ve just run out of your favorite beauty product and now you have to wait two days for it to arrive in the mail. Or is that just me? Regardless, a little TLC and some time to relax is really just what you need to recharge yourself.

Tip 1: E X F O L I A T E

Honestly, you’ll feel so much better shedding off all that dead skin. New skin, new you. There are tons of homemade recipes for scrubs too if you don’t feel like buying a pricey scrub.

Tip 2: Cleanse your face and put on a face mask

You can find some for less than $2 at Target or a packet of them on Amazon for $10.

Tip 3: Make yourself some tea.

It soothes the soul inside and out!

Tip 4: Take a walk.

Fresh air does wonders for the body and mind when you've been inside for too long. Plus, you get to appreciate the little wonders nature offers us.

Tip 5: Watch a feel-good movie you haven’t seen in a while.

Tip 6: Wear your comfy clothes.

Jeans are cool and all, but not as much when your plans consist of the couch and your favorite TV show.

Tip 7: Play some of your favorite music.

Sometimes meditation and reflection is a good way to move passed the things we can’t seem to forgive ourselves for.

In the end, it is always good to remember that one bad day does not mean it’s a bad life. Sometimes bad things happen more than good things, but it’s important to not dwell on the negativity and instead use that energy to make ourselves better versions of ourself. And a little self-love comes a long way in that journey.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
