Took Myself On a Date

Busy day so I decided to decompress before meeting a friend for lunch and treat myself to lunch at one of the local cafes by me. Obsessed 🤩 #lunchdate #supportlocalcafe #lemon8diarychallenge

2024/7/10 Edited to

In today's fast-paced world, taking time for oneself is essential for mental well-being. Engaging in self-dates not only allows you to relax but also helps you reconnect with your own preferences and desires. Consider trying a solo outing to explore a new café or restaurant in your area. Bring along a book or your favorite podcast to enhance the experience. Supporting local cafes can also uplift your community and contribute to the economy. Many places offer unique menus and cozy atmospheres perfect for unwinding. Don't hesitate to treat yourself to something special, whether it's a gourmet meal or your favorite dessert! Self-care moments like these can lead to a refreshed mindset and increased productivity. So, the next time you're feeling busy or overwhelmed, remember to schedule a solo date - you deserve it. #SelfCare #SupportLocal

I Took Myself on a Date

And here’s why you should too. Today I did the absolute UNTHINKABLE, most UNLIKE ME, thing I’ve ever done and I treated myself to a date - ALONE 😮 Do I have a partner? Yes, I do. Do I have friends? Yup. But I went out alone for the evening to see Jay Shetty’s On Purpose Podcast Tour on it

I committed this year to “living intentionally.” This means slowing down and putting myself on my own list, wearing the clothes that I’ve been saving for “a special occasion” and going to a concert even if it’s by myself. #shareyourthoughts #intentionalliving #dateyourself #valentinesday

Why didn’t I do this sooner? I absolutely loved it. I was craving their pancakes and their syrup 🤣 (I feel like Buddy the Elf- I know!). So instead of calling in for a pick up I just got dressed and said “f*** it! We’re doing this thing- alone. Don’t be nervous!”. I got there mid morning and the ho

I’ve been under the weather lately, but I knew staying home wasn’t going to help. So I took myself to Bravo for a solo date, and honestly, it lifted my spirits. 💕 A good meal, fresh air, and a reminder that healing sometimes looks like simply showing up for yourself. #SoloDate #SelfCare

how I learned to love myself

as a teenager I became really self-destructive and I hated myself. I felt so unworthy and like I needed a boyfriend so that I could have value. I could never be alone, and I spoke so negatively about myself. it wasn’t until I went through a life changing breakup 2 years ago that I knew something ne
