TRY DANETTE’S TOP 5 SELF-CARE TIPS

• Say loving words to yourself every day. “I’m not immune to becoming a little girl who wonders if she’s enough, and wonders if her dreams are going to come true,

People call February the month of romance, but in our book, you don’t need a partner to enjoy the love this season. Instead, try reminding yourself how much you love you . You’ll be amazed how much difference it makes to take Danette’s top five self-love tips to heart. Here are Danette’s rituals, in her own words.

and wonders if she’s worthy. We all have that little girl inside of us, so

I make sure that I stand in my power, in my queen, and tell myself at least 10–15 loving words every single day, words like, ‘I am enough, I am worthy, I am beautiful, I am lovable.’”

• Give yourself the gift of time. “I make sure that I schedule ‘me time’ every single day. Whether it’s at 5:30 a.m. before everyone else wakes up, or an afternoon walk in nature, I make sure I give myself the gift of time!”

• Take a bath. “At the end of the day, I fill up my bathtub with warm water. I put about a cup of Epsom salts in there, then add two

drops of lavender oil or another essential oil that feels pleasing to me at the time. I soak for 10–15 minutes and just give myself that chance to be in the water, to release anything that no longer serves me, and to give back to my body.”

• Honor your intuition. “If there’s an internal nudge,

whispering, or idea that comes into my mind, I honor it. I’ve noticed as I’ve honored these hits, these nudges, these thoughts, that deeper self- love has come for me.”

When you practice these rituals, you’ll be able to show up for yourself and others even more profoundly. To really double down on No. 5, check out the blog post “6 Ways to Transform Your Home Into a Spa” on DanetteMay.com.

• Move your body every day. “I’m all about getting into a space of internal knowing, groundedness, and peace,

but I believe movement is just as important as meditation, stillness, and quiet. Getting into your body is so fundamental for groundedness, for peace, and for self-love to be actualized.”
