Ive been secretly hiding something that only a few close family members and friends know about. However I want to share it in case someone else on my news feed is going through something similar. Lately Ive been really hard on myself. I was feeling like I was failing everyone I love. I was upset about not losing weight or toning my body. I felt like I was failing my children as a mom and my husband as a wife. No matter what anyone said I was stuck in this rut of self loathing. I avoided the mirror anytime I could and cried constantly. Finally tonight I decided to get something new. I took a relaxing bubble bath in candle light. Completely took every thought from my mind. Let myself forget about time and just focused on the warm water, the candles, and breathing. Afterward, I forced myself to look at the mirror and truly look at myself. I made myself avoid the flaws and look for what made me beautiful. I then went over all the accomplishments I made this week, even if they were small like keeping up on laundry. Its amazing how much better I feel about myself and how something so small really changed my thinking. I plan on continuing this once a week. :)
