Self Care For Valentines

Not everyone is going to have a boo for Valentine's Day, which can be a bit of a bummer. But instead of getting down on yourself, take the day for some self care. Feel free to mix and match! 

Take a bath

Because who can care when you're up to your chin in bubbles? Or a bath bomb.

Read a book

One that isn't a textbook.

Deep condition your hair

You keep meaning to get around to it.

Do some yoga

Stretch it out.

Put on a face mask

The ultimate "treat yo self."

Go out with friends

Because then you can glare at all the couples together.

Go to the gym

Get your workout on like this girl.

Fix a nice dinner

Whatever your favorite meal is, make that.

Put on your favorite playlist

Even if you're just laying in bed.

Have a dance party

Or you can get your groove on.

Color

Coloring is the best.

Meditate

Relaxation is important.

Write a list of things you're grateful for

Lack of a significant other doesn't mean you don't have something to be thankful for.

Make a cup of tea

Pick up your favorite tea, add some honey and sugar, and you're in business.

Go to bed early

Some good quality sleep is the way to go.

Clean up

A clean space always makes people happier.

Wear clothes that make you happy

You always feel better in your favorite outfit.

Go to the humane society

Who can be upset when you're playing with puppies?

Unplug from technology

Quit scrolling. You already know what's there.

Binge some Netflix

Put on your favorite show and forget the world for a little while.

Actually do a Pinterest project

You only have about a hundred that you haven't done.

Paint your nails

You always feel better with painted nails.

Take a nap

Naps are always the answer.

Organize your closet

It currently looks like a bomb went off in there.

Watch some stand-up comedy

Forget about everything and laugh for a little bit.

Clean up your social media

Delete that girl from high school you can't stand on Facebook.

Have a girls night in

All the wine.

Write in a journal

As a journaler, this is one of my favorites.

Make a smoothie

Who says it has to be healthy? Throw some chocolate, bananas, and peanut butter in there. Yum.

Babysit

They need to go out... you need money... It works.

Light your favorite candle

You won't struggle like this girl, and you'll be on your way to a mentally healthier you!

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.

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.
