March is Women’s History Month in the USA, and March 8th is the International Women’s Day. In Brazil the day is celebrated with women getting flowers, chocolate, messages and being appreciated.
Here are a few recommendations to celebrate your day:
Nurture Yourself. I could give you a laundry list of things you could do to nurture yourself, but ultimately you know best. Ask yourself how can I best nurture myself today? And then set some time aside to do it, even if it’s just for 5 minutes.
Take inventory of where you are in your life. This could be a journaling exercise. After completing the inventory, ask yourself if you would like to make any changes. If the answer is yes, choose one step you can take today to pursue it, even if it’s just for 5 minutes.
Get together with a friend. I know, some of us are facing a blizzard, and it might be difficult to get together. How about scheduling to Skype with a friend instead of meeting face-to-face. You can be there for each other and send each other virtual hugs.
Choose to make healthier choices. If you have any unhealthy habits that you indulge in each day, skip today. You will see how much better you feel with yourself if you make a different choice, even if it’s just for a day.
Visualize how you’d like your life to look like in 6 months. Trust yourself to create the vision that serves your highest good. Allow yourself to feel it in your body as if you were already there. Enjoy this moment. Even if it’s just for 5 minutes.
Commit to taking the first step and then take it. If your vision is overwhelming, consider sharing it with someone who can be the support system you need, or who can provide you with the tools and steps you need to create. Scheduling an appointment with a coach would take less than 5 minutes. 😉
How are you celebrating your Woman’s Day? I’m going to prepare a nurturing cup of tea with honey, and hey, it does take just 5 minutes.
Congratulations and enjoy your day!
