A Week devoted to YOU!

I am writing to inform you that this week is National Eating Disorder's Awareness Week. Embedded below is a video that I found to be so true yet gut wrenching. It is an older video but its meaning and reality still applies today.



I encourage you to spend each day this week doing something special for yourself because you are worth it!
Here a few suggestions:

• Give yourself a hug
• Write a letter to yourself expressing all of your great qualities and attributes
• Write messages about yourself on a Post-It note and post to a bathroom mirror, wall, fridge, etc. such as I love my eyes, I am strong, or I am beautiful
• Go shopping for a new blouse or accessories (or a little black dress!)
• Get a manicure or pedicure
• Go for a run or walk with a loved one
• Treat yourself to dinner or a hot bubble bath
• Buy yourself flowers (even one will do)
• Read a good book or watch your favorite movie
• Just simply RELAX!

How did the video above impact you? What special things do you do for yourself?
