Treat yourself

Do something nice for yourself. Pamper yourself, get a massage, treat yourself to a new pair of shoes or a new item of clothing. Self indulge - have an evening, or even a weekend, to yourself, doing exactly what you want. Have a special dinner, read a book, or watch a film. What ever treating yourself means to you, do it!

"Talk to yourself like you would to someone you love." Must remember.  #quotes #truth #selflove         Why Do We Continue to Think that Self-Compassion is Self-Indulgent?

Now is the time to embrace your own company, make the most of it whilst it's here, and get to know yourself as an individual again. You'll soon see that being single is a very empowering thing, and this time in your life is your chance to enjoy spending time alone, doing what ever you like to do, without having to think about someone else in those decisions. Embrace your independence!

Exercise makes you happy...

The eternal wisdom of Elle Woods.

If you haven't seen Legally Blonde, then please educate yourself!

Exercise is a really good way to take your mind off, or think more rationally about something negative. It boosts your mood, thanks to the endorphins, so you feel great - and you'll look great too! Perhaps you have some post-break-up-ice-cream-drowning pounds to lose? All in all, working out is a brilliant form of therapy, with excellent outcomes. Get your friends involved, perhaps sign up to a half marathon (like I did last year!) - grab yourself a running buddy, or meet new people in the process. The more you exercise, the better you'll feel!!
