Love Yourself, All Year Long
Did you know?
"Confidence helps us feel ready for life's experiences. When we're confident, we're more likely to move forward with people and opportunities- not back away from them. And if things don't work out at first, confidence helps us try again" - anonymous
Without confidence, we struggle. At work, at home - everything we do can feel 10 times harder if we’re not feeling like our best selves.
Speaking to Red Magazine, psychologist Elaine Slater said “Many associate confidence with feeling in control, and hair is one way that most of us can be in charge in terms of the vast number of ways in which we can alter it. Hair can give us the external appearance of being well managed and in control.”
In another survey, 68% of women said that a bad hair day can not only cause a drop in confidence, but even decrease productivity at work.
For better or worse, good hair days matter.
Because we know self care leads to self love and confidence! Here are some of our favourite tips to add into your routine:
Forgive Yourself
Firstly, if you’ve been struggling with low confidence, or feelings that you’re not doing ‘enough’ - forgive yourself and let those feelings go. Show yourself the same kind of love and compassion you show others who are struggling.
Learn Something New
Whether it’s a book you’ve been wanting to read or a new hobby you’ve been wanting to try, learning something new makes us feel productive, accomplished, and helps us find purpose.
Meet with Friends
Get together with friends on a regular basis. Maybe it’s a bi-weekly coffee date or rotate hosting dinner each month. But make sure to incorporate one rule: It’s a good-news only date.
And last but not least…
Take time for Self Care
This means scheduling “me time”. We tend to feel better and in control when we take care of ourselves. In fact, it’s scientifically proven! Be sure to schedule in “you time” on a regular basis, even if that simply means putting lipstick or adding some curls to your hair. It really is the small things that can help us feel accomplished each day.
