*Be kind to your mind*
The most important thing we can learn in life is that our thoughts shape our reality.
The environment we create in our brain quite literally creates the environment we live in day to day and we have the power to choose and change our thoughts.
This is the era of realising we are the main character of our story and we get to choose how that story goes.
When I separated from the father of my children I implemented many goals, I basically wanted to become an entirely new person and slowly I started working on changing myself and evolving into an entirely new woman like I've done many times before in my life.
One thing (there are MANY) that im really proud of myself for is my new love for being in the kitchen. Once upon a time I never cooked, in fact when I very first met the father of my children I'd literally NEVER even shopped at a supermarket, I hated the place and avoided it all costs. I was 24 years old before I ate a fu***ng salad. No joke.
Ofcourse becoming a mother I did teach myself how to cook and bake but I would never say I loved it, it was more a necessary task and definitely not something I enjoyed.
BUT, I wanted that to change. So I quite simply started telling myself that I love the kitchen. That I love cooking and baking and it brings me so much joy. Guess what? My body believed what I told it. Slowly but surely I have fallen in love with trying new recipes and in the last few weeks have managed to almost completely transition my children's lunchboxes from store bought packaged items to almost entirely home made / fresh food and it feels so fu***ng good.
Once a necessary task I didn't enjoy to something I genuinely love prioritizing and now chances are if I'm at home you'll find me in the kitchen 😂 I've made so many new baking recipes that have all turned out PERFECT and the kids absolutely love them which is the best part! Trying new dinner meal recipes is also a new favorite for me and I'm slowly working on growing the kids taste buds in that department too.
Moral of the story? You have the power to become anyone you bloody well want, change your narrative and watch yourself flourish 🙌🧡
