How I recconect with myself

When life is busy with work, school, family it’s sometimes difficult to balance self care & staying in tuned with yourself. I try to at-least spend one day during the week to relax & take care of myself the entire day!

Listening to your body is SO important. I try to incorporate these things during the week to help reduce the chance of burnout. Taking at least a hour for yourself a day if it’s journaling, meditation, working out & watching your favorite show it’s so important to take care of yourself🩷

Listen to uplifting playlists that elevate your mood or explore new genres that excite your senses. Nature walks, for example, can enhance your connection with the world around you, providing moments of tranquility and reflection. Additionally, don't underestimate the power of a good book or an engaging series. Reading new material stimulates the mind and encourages relaxation.Engaging your body through exercise, whether it's a gym session or a morning yoga practice, can also be a vital aspect of self-care.

A person's back shows long, light-colored damaged hair, with an inset close-up revealing severe thinning and breakage on the scalp. The image highlights the impact of 6 years of bleaching, hair extension damage, and diabetic hair thinning and loss.
This image explains how avoiding heat helps hair recovery. High temperatures alter hair's protein structure, convert α-keratin to β-keratin, weaken hair, open cuticles, and strip natural moisture and oils, leading to dryness and damage.
The image illustrates the benefits of using a shower filter for hair health. It removes contaminants like chlorine, lead, and heavy metals that can damage hair, making it rough and dry, and supports a healthy scalp for growth and shine.
How I saved my damaged hair
I absolutely destroyed my hair. I used to bleach my hair every 8 weeks for about 6 years and being a type 1 diabetic (I was newly diagnosed and had uncontrolled blood sugar in the beginning) led to my hair having constant breakage, thinning, never growing, and feeling like straw. I thought the cau
