Here are 10 small habits that will help you feel better - every day.
Smile at yourself in the mirror in the morning
Even if there is a sleepless night behind you. Even if your hair has a life of its own.
Look in the mirror, wink at yourself and say:
"Good morning, beautiful." It's not stupid. It's therapy. Start your day with self-love 💛
Write down one joy of the day
Every evening, even on the run:
- The child fell asleep on time.
— No one broke the dishes.
— I didn't forget about the socks! Any little thing is already a victory. A joy notebook works wonders ✨
5 minutes with tea and no noise
Ritual: while everyone is sleeping, you are in the kitchen with a cup. No phone. No cartoons. No "mamaaa". Just you and silence.
And it's a blast, really.
Dress up... just like that
A dress that makes you feel like a goddess. Beautiful lingerie. New lipstick. Not for someone else. For yourself.
Your confidence is your strength.
20 minutes without a phone
Not for procrastination, but to see reality again:
— the sky outside the window,
— your look in the mirror,
— the child who drew on the wall with a marker again.
⠀(Okay, here you can return the phone — to take a photo of the masterpiece 😅)
Dance as if no one is watching
Especially if the child is watching! Let them know: inside mom there is fire. A couple of minutes with your favorite song = minus stress, plus serotonin.
Read at least 1 page
No time for novels — read line by line. Get inspired, dream, discover new horizons.
⠀A book is a secret date with yourself.
Thank yourself
Before going to bed — a warm word to yourself:
"I did it. I'm great." You don't have to be perfect. You are already good enough. Just like that.
Say nice things to yourself
Whisper. To yourself. Seriously.
— I am beautiful.
— I am strong.
— I deserve love. Because it's true. Even if no one else said it — say it yourself.
Stop comparing
You are not the mom from Instagram.
And thank God. You are real, alive, loving.
And therefore - the best mom for your child.
Remember: a happy mom is not the one for whom everything is perfect.
A happy one is the one who has found small reasons to smile...
And takes care of herself as the most precious treasure. Because this is the truth.
