CREATIVE PLAYGROUND

Adulting is hard. Trauma sucks. And everything is way too serious.
The Creativity Playground is your permission slip to do something just for fun. I’ll kick us off! Here’s my creative expression for the month:

It turns out, there are a lot of ways we can introduce self love into our day, even when it doesn’t look like what we’d expect. For fun, I decided to write out 22 ways I’m loving on myself in 2022. Here’s what I came up with:

22 Ways I Love on Myself Which Don’t Always Look Like Self-Love

Buying myself fresh flowers.
Saying no to something.
Doing less.
Going to therapy even when it’s hard.
Self-massaging in the morning.
Watching TV.
Hiking with Andrew.
Taking naps.
Eating ice cream.
Seeing my acupuncturist regularly.
Giving people their suffering back.
Lighting a candle.
Smudging my space with sage.
Rolling on essential oils and filling my diffuser.
QUITTING.
Painting my nails.
Writing.
Adding peppermint oil to my morning shower.
Practicing tai chi.
Reading just for fun.
Setting boundaries with my family.
Splurging on pre-cut pineapple.

NOW IT’S YOUR TURN

Set your timer for 10 minutes and give this month’s creativity exercise a whirl! Share YOUR version of 22 ways you are loving on yourself in 2022 and use the hashtag: #mondayvibesmoments. Excited to see what you come up with!

SPILL THE BOBA

I just have so much to share with you all that I decided to add in a “Spill the Boba” section to Monday Vibes! This is a special pop-up section where I’ll share random musings, lessons, annoyances and stories. This week is all about an annoying (and embarrassing) encounter with my new neighbor…the shit we go through as AAPI folx…you can listen below!
