Pain is a normal part of life, but that doesn’t mean it’s a necessary part of life. Too many people live as though suffering will help them get where they want to be; as though it will resolve them of their worry, earn them greater respect, or make them more deserving of what’s good in
“It’s all about falling in love with yourself and sharing that love with someone who appreciates you, rather than looking for love to compensate for a self-love deficit.” ~Eartha Kitt I always found the concept of self-love embarrassing and horrifying.

The most important relationship that we will ever have is the one that we have with ourselves. The way that we speak to ourselves, to what extent we respect ourselves, whether we honor the boundaries that we have set—all of these actions are mirrored in our relationships with others. We have all been told that
“Leave your front door and your back door open. Let thoughts come and go. Just don’t serve them tea.” ~Shunryu Suzuki There are few things more exasperating in life than having a noisy chatterbox in residence between your ears—a busy mind that never stops and won’t leave you in peace for a moment. You are sitting by the

Takeaway: When you consume caffeine habitually, you’ll need to consume more and more to experience the same energy boost.

Trigger warning: Eating disorders The self-care revolution has a lot of us believing that if we do more yoga headstands or attend more sound bath meditations, we will automatically find self-realization.

1. Being able to fall asleep on planes is a superpower. If you can do that, you’re one of the lucky ones. 2.

If you started 2020 hoping for a fresh start, you may have thought about buying a whole new wardrobe. That makes perfect sense, in the opinion of stylist Lisa Kisber. “One of the ways you can feel fresh … is to take that on with your wardrobe,” she said. “Obviously, how you dress can affect

To the average movie fan, a Screen Actors Guild Award might not have quite the same cachet as an Oscar.
